Barnaby Rudge: (I have to begin this post with a reminder to my readers that I by no means encourage them to read
Barnaby Rudge. It's very bad.)
There's one girl named Dolly Varden who's sorta fly. She's the "pretty and high-spirited lass" type character, kind of a pre-Dora, but, unlike Dora, she doesn't get punished for being flirty and carefree! And she doesn't faint when she gets kidnapped.

My favorite thing about Dolly Varden is that, because she was a very
popular character, there are a lot of things named after her. Such as:
A type of cake tin that makes Barbie dress cakes:
A type of trout:
A dress style:
A Long Beach hotel:
An alt-country band:
Which brings me to another point I want to make! There are a lot of bands named after Dickens characters. Oh yes, next post.
