Fern

Botanical name

Charlotte’s Web was first published on October 15,1952, introducing the world to not only Charlotte the spider but Wilbur, who was SOME PIG, and sweet human heroine Fern. Fern is countrified name that is quietly becoming more popular: It was given to 184 baby girls in the US last year, three times as many as were given the botanical name a decade ago, probably because names from children’s books are very much in style..
