Who’s been counting the days until season seven of Game of Thrones ?
Unfortunately for all of you die-hard GoT fans, the wait isn’t over just yet. The upcoming season air date has been pushed back until sometime in the summer of 2017, due to the realities of mother nature.
“We’re starting a bit later because at the end of this season, ‘Winter is here’ – and that means that sunny weather doesn’t really serve our purposes any more,” show creators David Benioff and Dan Weiss have revealed. “So we kind of pushed everything down the line, so we could get some grim grey weather even in the sunnier places that we shoot.”
Shooting is underway, and is expected to continue until February, and it will be several months after that before your GoT withdrawal is finally put to an end.
In the meantime, though, maybe we can help ease your pain. Did you know that Game of Thrones has not only smashed ratings and awards records, it’s also providing plenty of expectant parents with some surprisingly great baby name inspiration?
Here’s a look at some of our favorites…
Some of these are actually pretty great. I love the name Meera, and Olly for a boy is a cute choice.
If you’re wondering if anyone would actually name their baby after a TV show, the answer is yes.
BabyCenter has observed many baby name trends based on popular shows and films. Character names from Frozen, Star Wars, Scandal, 50 Shades of Grey and even Breaking Bad have seen spikes in popularity in recent years, just to name a few!
How did you come up with your baby’s name?
