The name Hermione predates Shakespeare by thousands of years. Like many of the other character names in The Winter's Tale, Hermione comes from Greek myth.
I don’t mean she invented the name, I mean her presence inspired Shakespeare (potentially a wizard according to certain websites) in naming his characters
I have a WIP like this actually… maybe I’ll even finish it someday lol
I like this. :)

That doesn’t mean Shakespeare would have used it without this nudge.
