Your name in fiction?

[sethgray]

Every time I see a character with my name in fiction, I always get this little jolt. Like surprise or something. Is that cause Seth is a pretty rare name as far as names go, or are other people this way?

My name is rare enough that I have yet to have one character in any story I've read share it.
There is a movie from 2001 with the french version of my name (Amelie) and I was all 'yay! people might get my name kind of right after this!' but I was disappointed.

Seth isn't all that rare...we had two in just our tiny high school and there were two or three I knew in Oklahoma.

It's still a pretty rare name. Not as rare as it used to be, but still not common.
