<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Author's note about Rebecca:<br />
<br />
There are at least three major characters in the [[Course Books]] [[Cannon]] to carry the name Rebecca: [[Rebecca Rikart]] and [[Rebecca Bur'I]] from the Course Books, and [[Rebecca Jusenkyou]] from the [[Consecution Books]]. <br />
<br />
In the storyline, they are all actually named after Rebecca Rikart: Rebecca Bur'I is [[Jason Bur'I|Jason's]] daughter, and thus named after her, and Rebecca Jusenkyou is the daughter of [[Lily McConery]], and is actually named after Jason's daughter.<br />
<br />
So there is a reasonable explanation within the cannon for 'why the name appears to many times'.<br />
<br />
Now for the real reason: Rebecca Brandt (I think that's the spelling) was my first major crush, way back in 7th grade. I never told her, of course, since I was a stupid, shy little teenager. We went to different highschools, but I had one chance to meet her in 9th grade after marching in a parade (we both played trumpet, albeit for different bands) but I, of course, still didn't have the courage to talk to her.<br />
<br />
I had one last opportunity to see her: grad night, at Disneyland, near the end of highschool. I even knew a guy who was friends with her and striking up a conversation would have been easy; I was probably even confident enough at that time to open with "I had a huge crush on you in middle school". But I Didn't. Say. Anything.<br />
<br />
Yeah.<br />
<br />
It's easy not to regret the awkward conversations, but hard to forget the ones that never happened.<br />
<br />
UPDATE: So more recently, I have discovered that all these years of searching I have been foolishly looking for "Rebecca" and not "Becky", despite how her yearbook photo was obviously labeled. Personally, I blame my 8th grade P.E. teacher (whom I am sure a number of villains will be based on). Anyway, not only did I find her, I found out I know several people who know her, including the guy I was riding in the car with the evening I discovered all of this. I got to have a delightful telephone conversation with her and all is well.<br />
<br />
She doesn't even find it creepy that I had 3 book characters named after her.<br />
