10 Most Loved Fictional Characters from Books

While we read a book, we tend to observe each character and after completing it we think of a specific character a little bit more and it is often the central character – perhaps because of their lifestyle or their choice of words or how they are dealing with their lives. Here is a list of the 10 most loved fictional characters from books.

Elizabeth Bennet

Elizabeth Bennet is probably the most idealized character from books, and this character created by Jane Austen in Pride and Prejudice is loved by all. Her character stood out because of his family, her mother whose only concern was to get all her daughters married and her sisters who wanted to get married to a prosperous household. She has her individuality and mindset about gender and class. She was not ready to fall for a man just because her mother considered her as a burden and the man is wealthy.

Hermione Granger

Hermione Granger is one of those relatable characters that are loved by all. In the beginning, she was like those intellectual girls who are aware of her wisdom, and later on, she proved herself as a best friend for both Ron and Harry. She has this kind heart and positive mindset that helped Gryffindor House and Harry Potter to go through their hurdles easily.

Jane Eyre

Jane Eyre is not only a notable character in the Victorian era but she is still equally praised and significant for the authenticity her character presented along with her longings and struggles in that social condition and all the credit of this rebel character goes to Charlotte Bronte.

Atticus Finch

Atticus Finch is an ideal white man as he spoke out for racial justice – he is one of the ideal men and characters in American literature. Not only was he strict with his principles but he wanted his children to be equally principled and disciplined and that’s what makes him one of the most loved characters.

Sherlock Holmes

Not only he is strong and intelligent but Holmes always presents the modern-day fascination with time and work and the anxiety that comes with it. Being the most relatable person but from an entirely secretive profession makes him one of the most loved characters.

Mr. Darcy

Mr. Darcy represented the category of ideal men – with a bit of heart and a lot of pride for their class and intellect. But the fact that he let his guard down for Elizabeth and confessed his feelings in such romantic words, not only that he helped her family when they needed someone is what made him one of the most loved characters from books.

Jo March

He is the most loved character because of his traumatizing childhood, how he practically grew up in Hogwarts and got aware of his powers and finally killed Lord Voldemort, the ultimate foe of Hogwarts.

Albus Dumbledore

Dumbledore is one of the most loved characters for his benevolent, stern, and guardian-like nature. He was like a best friend and guide to Harry. He left no stone unturned to protect Harry and Hogwarts.

Jay Gatsby

Jay Gatsby represents the American spirit of discovering and reinventing oneself as he throws lavish parties but he is a dark horse to people and even in that crowd he feels like he does not belong there. His character is relatable to the audience cause we all tried and try to fit in some kind of ambiance and with a certain group of people.
