Match the Lovers

Published February 18, 2014 · Updated October 25, 2022

Time for another game! Below is a list of twenty lovers in literature, history, and a few from TV or other silly places. All are familiar – at least I think they are – so should be easy to match up. Again, all in good fun, so no one is being graded here. Commenting with answers counts toward the “Month of Love” giveaway whether right or wrong. I’ll post answers to this and the other quizzes in March when I announce the giveaway winners. Enjoy!

1 – P Fanny Price and Edmund Bertram (Mansfield Park by Jane Austen)

2 – R Guinevere and Lancelot

3 – M Scarlett O’Hara and Rhett Butler (Gone With the Wind by Margaret Mitchell)

4 – J Lois Lane and Clark Kent (Superman)

5 – T Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester (Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte)

6 – O Daisy Buchanan and Jay Gatsby (The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald)

7 – Q Snow White and Prince Charming

8 – C Maid Marian and Robin Hood

9 – K Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog

10 – A Princess Buttercup and Westley (The Princess Bride)

11 – I Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley (Harry Potter series by JK Rowlings)

12 – D Helena of Troy and Prince Paris

13 – H Minnie and Mickey Mouse

14 – L Beatrice and Benedick (Much Ado About Nothing by Shakespeare)

15 – B Olive Oyl and Popeye the Sailor Man

16 – G Marianne Dashwood and Colonel Brandon (Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen)

17 – E Anna Karenina and Count Vronsky (Anna Karenina by Tolstoy)

Now I am curious! Missed any media remarks on Harry Potter. Was someone pairing Hermoine with Harry? Or Hagrid? LOL!
