Pop-culture names
The names on everyone's screen, for better or worse.
What it does
Pop-culture names tracks naming's zeitgeist in four packs: Film (Leia, Atticus, Elio), TV (Eleven, Arya, Ted), Books (Lyra, Katniss, Frodo), and Sports (Serena, Lionel, Simone) — 16 names with meanings and catalog links. It overlaps the Character pack deliberately: this shelf is about cultural moment, not just fictional characters.
