Naming the LotGK
Most of you have probably heard by now that they're holding a competition to come up with a name for the witch (whom we fondly like to refer to here as "The Lady of the Green Kirtle" or the "LotGK") in the Silver Chair film.

Re: Naming the LotGK
I think it's great that they're getting the fans involved. And by having her have a name, that does mean they will NOT have the LotGK be the same person as Jadis. I always wondered whether they really could be the same person, it almost seemed like C.S. Lewis hinted at that, but...anyways. I think it will be good for her to have an actual name. Just like how they gave Ramandu's Daughter a name in VDT. It will be interesting to see which name they pick...

Re: Naming the LotGK
Wasn't it the owls that mentioned that she was probably of the same kind as the White Witch? I always wondered if that meant she was from Charn, too, or half-Jinn-half-giantess. I would have gone with something Persian (like Jadis) if I had turned in a name.

I entered the name Gennamine. I made it up for this ridiculous character in a story I'm writing.

Re: Naming the LotGK
I named her Sirenssa...
The double "SS" for her serpentine nature, and the "Siren" for her deceptively enchanting nature ensnaring and destroying the underlanders, Prince Rilian and -- almost -- Puddleglum, Jill and Eustace.

Re: Naming the LotGK
I wonder if anybody entered Lamia, while that was running... Or would that be too heavy-handed a reference?

Re: Naming the LotGK
No she's not the same person. Douglas Gresham (C.S Lewis's stepson disproved it.) I understand though why someone might think that, especially since I understand in the BBC, the actress played both parts.Quill Jill wrote:I think it's great that they're getting the fans involved.

That's an interesting thought! I thought perhaps maybe he was saying the same type, as in just as wicked as.hobbit_of_narnia wrote:Wasn't it the owls that mentioned that she was probably of the same kind as the White Witch?
