Top 5 Wednesday

This is my first time participating in a Top 5 Wednesday meme. Well in all fairness, it's my first time taking part in a meme ever! So I've been looking for one I think I'd enjoy participating on a weekly basis and I found two, this one being the idea I liked more. However, every other week I am going to participate in the other meme which will be revealed next Wednesday.

So to start off, this meme was created on goodreads (unfortunately I do not know by who) and the topic for this week is favourtie character names.

Firstly, one of my favourite character names has to be...




                                                                  Atticus


I don't know why I like this name so much but it's just different (or at least it is to me).


Another of my favourite character names is...

                                                                         Dobby



In all fairness, I cannot put any of the names down in the Harry Potter series as they are all absolutely fantastic. I mean who would have thought to name someone Neville Longbottom or Lord Voldemort or Severus Snape etc. They are just all extremely orignigal. Well done to J.K Rowling


This is a childhood favourite of mine of which i recently re-read very quickly and actually really enjoyed (Well I enjoy all these books haha)...

                                                                     Esio Trot


I just think this name is actually very funny as it of course spells tortoise backwards and the pet tortoise is called this.


I have not read these books, but have seen the films and absolutely loved them...

                                                                  Bilbo Baggins 


I also used to play the hobbit game on PS2 when i was a lot younger as I am a big game console fan and this name has stuck with me for years. It's just so catchy.


And finally the last character name is...

                                                                        Tomasz


Not only did i fall in love with this name, I fell in love with the character in this book. Tomasz isn't exactly an unusal name but I found myself smiling everytime I came to read his name in the book and therefore had to include it. (Think it's because it's polish so the pronunciation in my head sounds very odd).


Well that wraps up my top 5 wednesday post for this week and I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether you agree or disagree with my choices and what your choices are/would.

  1. Your picks are great! I was so close to putting Atticus Finch on my list too. He has a great name and it looks good in print too.
