Let's put this to the test...
Clarice - unique enough to make an instant connection with Silence Of The Lambs.
Stella - oddly enough it makes me think of another movie character: Blanche. Alternatively, the Belgian beer brand Stella Artois.
Ben - nothing here. I guess it could be Ben Hur but this is about spontaneous associations, not speculations.
Sydney - ??
Carrie - "they're all gonna laugh at you!"
Daryl - Daryl Hannah (I thought she was a real person?) and secondly the underrated sci-fi classic D.A.R.Y.L. (1985)
Hal - actor Hal Holbrook
Marty - Marty McFly (such an irritating name
)
Tristan - ?? I know there's a Tristan & Isolde but I've never seen it.
Jack - that would be a song for me (Jack To The Sound Of The Underground)
Smith - the association would be the many movie characters who tried to be as nondescript as possible.
Sam - ??
Dorothy - Bea Arthur's character in the sitcom Golden Girls (or, as Blanche used to pronounce it, "Daaahrathy")
Luke - It depends. No association in real life, but in an internet thread about movie name assocations it's Skywalker. Tricky!
Leia - to me this looks like a name that can only exist in a conversation about Star Wars. Never seen/heard anywhere else.

To be fair, how many in real life are named Scooby? 😆

When I hear "Tom" I immediately think of the headless horseman from Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow.
If someone says, "Wayne" I think of Dead Tom from Muppet Treasure Island.
These are serious. I am playing by the rules. I see no reason two random associations can't qualify for this thread.

Wayne is always a guy who has a World.
Laura is a character in a 1940's movie....although sometimes Rob Petrie's spouse.

Samwise Gamgee? Sam Tarly in Game of Thrones (not a movie, but hey, you brought TV
into this...)
Dorothy- I was thinking of a little movie called Wizard of Oz....
Leia- Actually I know a Leia in real life.
Totally agree with you about Carrie and Hal.
