It's ironic that my Dad has been skeptical of my fondness for Thomas the Tank Engine as I grew up, since that's actually his first name! He usually goes by "Tom" though.

I have the same name as that one off Jet plane character I think.
It was funny when I found that out, because I was into aircraft at the time.

I have some friends named Alice and Isabelle, as in Duck and Oliver's coaches. The girls I know are actually best friends, which is a little coincidental considering the relationship of the coaches in the books!

Good grief, that sounds crazy, but overall understandable.

Well I know a couple.
There's my dad, Duncan. Molly, a friend from my class. Do pets count? If so, I have Millie, my 8 year old cocker spaniel.
And finally, me. I'm kinda a double whammy, as my first name is James, and I share a middle name with my dad. Apparently it's also kinda on purpose. My mum says that i'm named that because she asked my older brother (who was about 3 at the time) what to name me. And his favorite engine was James. I got Duncan as a middle name because it's apparently a tradition.

Let's see, I know:
2 Thomases 1 Rosie 2 Connors (albeit one of them is spelt differently) 1 Douglas 1 Molly
All of the above are or have been people from my classes.
One of my dad's friends is called George, who has a son called Arthur (Now we just need to wait for the custom WR to make its way over here, and his wife Heather can share her name with a character as well!).

I know a Sam, an Emilee (Emily), 2 Georges, 5 Jameses, 2 Billys, a Jack, a Neil, a Ben, a Kelly, a Spencer, and a Tom (Thomas). Dunno if knowing a bunch of Charles/Chucks counts, seeing as we have a Charlie on Thomas & Friends.
