So after we get a villain named Severan in Carte Blanche, Eon magically conjures a Bond Girl named Severin in Skyfall. Coincidence? Or is this another "Colonel Moon" moment?

Wondering what her last name is.

I'm gonna nit pick now ... just wondering if it's actually spelt Severine as it's pronounced ... ???
Looks more feminine that way ...

As for her last name, it may not be revealed at all ... like Solitaire ... but then again we got Camille's much later too.

Coincidence?


It must be. Leastways, I can see no earthly reason why Eon would wish to reference CARTE BLANCHE.

If the character is, as the actress, French, then the name is "Séverine" (the French spelling for it).

All the press is spelling it Severin, but I think it will be Severine.

just googled the name and there were TWO eurovision singers Severine as well as:
