I'd mentionned Leela to my mom when citing other unusual names, but it sounded off cuz it made me think of Leela from Futurama so I was thinking possibly Layla and had to doublecheck it myself.<BR/><BR/>Tegan as normal person drove me nuts, but as my bro pointed out once, it was really Adric who lead her into trouble most of the time. I don't think I saw much of Sarah, but then I was little when I watched most of them.Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06168243108016358137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11901578.post-1113695889927905192005-04-16T19:58:00.000-04:002005-04-16T19:58:00.000-04:00yeah, i conflated leela and tegan there, i realize...yeah, i conflated leela and tegan there, i realized it after I'd logged off. i actually rather liked tegan, the flight attendant--she was more of a "normal person in unbelievable circumstances" than the others. sarah was Le Worst--"Oooooh Doctor! Jamie's fallen down a hole! Oooooh Doctor! The Tardis is broken again!" My dad and i used to make merciless fun of her. <BR/><BR/>i doubt if the internet stalkers will be able to trace teagan even with this clue. :]Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12328549389025600208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11901578.post-1113674730562129562005-04-16T14:05:00.000-04:002005-04-16T14:05:00.000-04:00that's so like him...to name his daughter after a ...that's so like him...to name his daughter after a Dr. Who character and then to spell it wrong. Even the official site spells it as Tegan (I admit I like the balanced look of it).Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06168243108016358137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11901578.post-1113673928152148842005-04-16T13:52:00.000-04:002005-04-16T13:52:00.000-04:00Yes, I suppose it was out of a sense of propriety ...Yes, I suppose it was out of a sense of propriety or privacy for my niece's sake but what the hell: Teagan (though on the Dr. Who site I just checked, it was spelled Tegan so maybe my niece is entirely off the hook). I rather liked Leela and next to K-9, the 1st Romana was my favorite.Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06168243108016358137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11901578.post-1113617026983360472005-04-15T22:03:00.000-04:002005-04-15T22:03:00.000-04:00is there a reason you didnt' say WHICH sidekick th...is there a reason you didnt' say WHICH sidekick they named her after?
