Chachi from Happy Days. That was my childhood nickname WAY BEFORE the character on Happy Days came on. I wonder if some producer/writer heard someone call me that and thought, "Hmmm, that would be a cool name for that new Happy Days character..." :wave:

I can't think of a tv character who was named Jenny. Jenny Jones and Jenny Craig don't count because both actresses real names are Jenny.

Jennifer Garrison (California Dreams)

Thanks, but my name isn't Jennifer. Are there any tv characters with the name Jenny?

I have the same problem because my name isn't Catherine.

Andrea-- the only one I can think of was Andrea from "Beverly Hills, 90210, except my name is pronounced differently. The first syllable of my name is pronounced "and' and her first syllable was pronounced "ond".
