Names scarred by movies

We're all mad here.
I do wonder about people thinking about where a name came from, and it's something that I am curious about myself, but movies are not the first thing I think of. For instance, when I think "Alice" I immediately think of
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
because of how long it's been around, and I also haven't known anyone named Alice. While I like the name "Jacob" to me it's a Biblical name.
Twilight
doesn't even come to mind.
I find it does make a difference if I've met people with a particular name. For instance one of my grandmother's names was Zena (or Xena, not sure how it was spelt). I never would have thought of giving a kid that name before I knew that because to me it was always attached to the TV show and I thought it didn't exist anywhere else.
Tea?
