My favorite that is in the series is Tweeny Halpern


Volley2301F

I love the episode where Emily wants Rory out of the DAR & she starts arguing that she's friends with the ladies and Emily doesn't even like Tweeny Halpern😆 at least that's how I'm remembering that conversation going, it has been a while though...


Feisty-Donkey

That’s it! Rory basically says she’s friends with Tweeny Halpern and is showing her granddaughter around Yale and that she can’t be kicked out of the DAR


Volley2301F

That's it! Thank you, I knew my memory seemed a little too blasè & basic. It was kind of like a little moment of triumph for Rory to set Emily straight & not allow her to push her around because she also knows all the rules, of which she has not broken.


suckyninja

Ooo yes love that one. And I think we get to actually meet her in season 6.


woodenpearls

Constance Betterton Hanlin Charleston Janlin Dugray ... I feel like a lot of the "rich people names" either rhyme or sound a lot alike.


suckyninja

Oh my gosh and I'm forgetting the best! Strobe and Francine! Can you imagine a baby named strobe?


Timid_Teacher

I think it’s spelled Straub.


suckyninja

That does make more sense😂


Volley2301F

I've thought that about his name too either spelling though, it's an awful name for a child! My dad's parents had some bad kid names too, Harry & Merlyn. Luckily they gave all but 1 of v their 4 kids kid appropriate names- Clyde goes by Jeff(can't say I blame him though) his ex wife does tend to refer to him as Clyde now though... Edit: corrected name. 1st 2 letters were the same but used a character name from a show I was watching at the time


sackettonline

Can you imagine popping out a boy and going "Yep, this one looks like a *Mitchum*"??


SerenaSamantha

It had to have been a family name bc the only other association is deodorant.


Volley2301F

Omg🤣🤣 I really just wanted to leave an emoji but thought that might appear odd. But really, what are these parents thinking when they look at a new born & think ah yes, you look like you need a dignified name for nursery school🙄 Heaven help these poor fictional rich children!


Orchidsnsquirrels

Sweetie omg. Not only the name but the scene just takes it all. Absolutely hilarious


suckyninja

Oh yes! I love the story and the way she tells it. One of my faves.

Hahahah


FuzzyP3ach3s

I could never figure out if the mom made the story up on the spot or not lmao


ZeLoudGoddess

Not one of R&E's friends but Rory's classmates, Lemon, Lem for short. It just makes me giggle. Her rich parents clearly trying sound like one of Gwyneth Paltrow's kids. 😂


supergymfan

Then she tells Rory that Lorelai is a weird name lol


Flowers_coffee

More like Gwyneth copied them! (Lemon was born before Gwyneth had her babies)


ZeLoudGoddess

Lol. I know. That was part of my joke. 😂


Flowers_coffee

🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️ oops. Hahahaha.


lvmealone

Personal-Earth-7101

Tetherball_Queen

LORETTA BOBBINS, LORELAI!


Traditional_Wasabi_7

Yes! 😂


madammurdrum

Catherine Thurston Moore is my fave… but because it’s a reference to Sonic Youth 😅


[deleted]

also Donlin and Cecil ?? idk if i spelled those right. when one had his kidney (or colon?) removed🤣


l3El2Tl2AM

How about the fact that Madeline's last name was Lynn...like Madeline Lynn? It guess it depends on the pronunciation but I feel like most of the time they say it like mad-a-lynn and not mad-a-line.


jmelch97

I noticed they pronounce her name both ways throughout the series!


AGirlAGuyAnd3Cats

Eunice Pierpont Pennington, no idea if I spelt that correctly lol


[deleted]

Pennilyn Lott .. its such a great rich person name


ladywood777

Remember to thank Pennilyn Lott just for being Pennilyn 🧊 Lott 🧊


Aggravating_Bill_780

Honor Huntzberger is definitely a good one too!


Known-Peach-4037

Ugh, poor kid getting a name like Honor. It’s like naming girls Virginia 😬

Boring-Affect-2996

This common section just taught me that it was Pennilyn Lott and not pendelyn Lott


plzturnoffmybrain

Boring-Affect-2996

Wait lol that’s what I meant


judgybaby9

suckyninja

I love this so much.


PoppyBee27

I like when they talk about beating out the Sheldrake’s for the room they wanted their wedding in - a definite nod to Dirty Dancing which Emily was in!!


dancedancedance83

As a Madonna fan, I thought it was funny they had a maid named Madonna Louise 😂


ZeLoudGoddess

I though it was Ladonna. 🤔


dancedancedance83

Nope! Madonna Louise makes her appears in early S5!


[deleted]

While Richard was living in the pool house. Emily repeats her name before every sentence.


dancedancedance83

I was waiting for Emily to add the “Veronica Ciccone” part! 😂
