"Becoming Jane" News

The Becoming Jane fansite reports that Anne Hathaway will be giving the following interviews in the US to promote the film:

  • The Late Show with David Letterman - Friday, July 27

  • Live with Regis & Kelly - Wednesday, August 1

  • Late Night with Conan O'Brien - Thursday, August 2


The site also claims that Tom Lefroy's first daughter must have been named after Jane Austen. I'm skeptical. I really don't know enough about the actual "relationship" between Jane and Tom, other than the fact that there was some flirtation at a ball or two, to pass judegement. However, I highly doubt that any man of sense or feeling would induce his wife to name their child after his old flame...

What do you think?

Tom Lefroy was a religious man--he eventually became a staunch Evangelical--so I don't find it at all strange that he named a daughter after the birth of Christ, without reference to Christmas flirtations.
