What I’d like to know with this poll is, what was the first thing that came to mind when you saw the thread title:
The name Charlotte, generally given to women (and possibly some men, I suppose)
A particular person named Charlotte, such as Queen Charlotte, the wife of King George III
The North Carolina city called Charlotte
Some other city with a similar name, like Charlottesville, VA
An obscure rock band, like Good Charlotte
Or something else (please specify)
Thanks!
Inlaws. Which is funny, because my own relatives live in Charlotte, too.
But yeah, the city. Second connection? Our family cat when I was a kid.

Sadness. Charlotte was what I was going to name a girl, before I had a miscarriage.

Don’t I wish. Heck, I thought about the stupid little spider.
First thought was the city in NC. Immediately following was Charlotte’s Web .

The city in NC.
Then wondered if it was a new hurricane.
Dessert.
Great. Now I’m all hungry.
I thought of the city but only because a co-worker just told me five minutes ago that he has to change planes in Charlotte for a trip he’s going on next week.
A figure-skating move (pronounced “shar-LOT”).
Then Charlotte Bronte.
What do I win?
In this order:
-A person, known to me, named Charlotte
-Another person, known to me, also named Charlotte
-A variety of potato.
Charlotte russe , a rich dessert originating at the Frenchified court of the Czars and still encountered in older Slavic communities.
Charlotte, NC.
Then Charlotte’s Web.
Me too (almost simultaneously).
The city, but only because of the many posts here about cities and what to do in them. I assumed it was another one of those.
The city, the other one in St. Thomas: Charlotte Amalie .
Obscure enough?

Well, it’s either “Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte” the movie or “Charlotte the Harlot” my brother’s girlfriend in the late 70s.
