Talk:Juliet Burke

message: It seems pretty clear that Juliet Burke follows the pattern of giving the last names of philosophers (Desmond Hume, Danielle Rousseau, John Locke...), in this case being named after Edmund Burke. Her ex-husband is even named "Edmund Burke". It seems pretty intuitive to me, but does anyone have a source verifying this so we could put it in the article without dispute?

message: * Juliet's sister Rachel, named her son Julian, a masculine form of the name Juliet.
That's a bit pointless, so i removed it.
And a bit incorrect. Julian is a feminine name as well so Juliet is not a feminine form of Julian. 08:51, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Trivia

message: The articles for Danielle Rousseau and John Locke mention where the creators got the names for these characters from (without citation). Shouldn't this article have a similar mention that Juliet was named after the character from Romeo and Juliet? Going to place it there along with the citation. --4.249.84.97 06:15, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Despite her docile nature, Juliet, alluding to her ends justify the means philosophy, was performing unauthorized experiments on her sister, Rachel.
I removed alluding to her ends justify the means philosophy,. first, "alluding to" is used incorrectly. if the orig author meant that when we see her perform experiments on her sister that the show's writers are further illustrating or fleshing out a theme or thread from earlier episodes, cool. but juliet is not alluding to anything when she performed unauthorized experiments.
second, if she has that philosophy, that is cool, too. but I have not seen the relevant episode, so I will leave it to other 'pedians to put that back in. if you want to say she has that philosophy, OK with me. if you do so, be clear & encyclopædic & non-crufty. thanks. skakEL 13:58, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  k, one more 

message: I strenuously disagree with actress Elizabeth Mitchell's assessment of her TV character! "Juliet" was put in an impossible situation with her husband: A man as odious as Ben Linus! Plus, she was desperate to save her sister from cancer, and besides all that, she had an abiding dedication to make sure her talents in medicine would not go to waste, and again, use them for her sister's sake. When Juliet finally realized that the mysterious "opportunist", Richadus, deceptively offered her a chance at original, productive research, and the promise to cure her sister (and the shock that the same Ricardus was responsible for killing her husband in an "convenient" traffic "accident"(,) she greedily drinks the "kool-aid" knowing that she would be swept away to a far unknown place! The manipulation by Ben Linus of terror, hopelessness, desperation, unconditional love and altruistic, selfless dedication was truly all that drove the character "Juliet Burke". (She is freed from a 'wolf', only to have a 'coyote' (Ben) nipping at her heels! *Sheesh*! It's still rough out here for an independent, professional female!!! (And really, Ive been searching for another character among the "Lost" cast intriguing enough to call my attention to the character. It was only because of the "tepid", truly undeserved derision to Elizabeth Mitchell's performance by "critics" of the episode "The Other Woman", that compelled me to look over the actress, and her character's actions further! She's the only regular female "action" character cast member that isn't violent, nor has blood on her hands!!! --184.248.3.83 (talk) 23:36, 27 December 2015 (UTC)
