There is a pedophile in Lolita called Clare Quilty
Quil imprints (which is basically just a fancy word for a pedophile) on a 2 year old called Clare

Very fishy if you ask me!.!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, it's a creepy coincidence!. Meyer probably read it and picked the names without really thinking about the implications!. Edward's love rival has the same name as her brother!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think it is a little unfair to call the werewolf who imprints on a child a paedophile!. It is made quite clear that there is no sexual activity invovled until the girl is grown up!. All the same it is a bit weird!. I mean, he's just waiting for her to grow up so that he can mate with her, and even though nothing is meant to happen until she is an adult!. It is very strange, I grant you, but not quite fair to describe it as paedophilia!. A paedophile is a person who is sexually attracted to children, whereas the imprinting is a once-in-a-lifetime thing as I understand it,a nd means that the werewolf concerned with continue to love the person he has imprinted on once she is an adult, and even when she is old and wrinkly!. That's not how paedophilia works!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

baha, what an amazing observation!. And while I would never have noticed that, I think you're over-analyzing things!. I'm positive it's a coincidence, but it really is a nice observation that you caught!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well!.!.!. Lolita was written in 1955!.!. and Lolitas are promiscuous female children!.!.!.

quill imprinting on the girl just makes him a pedophile, not a lolita!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
