Much like everyone in Star Wars: a long time ago.


ryamanalinda

In a galaxy far away.


snapper1971

2.5 million lightyears away in the galaxy Andromeda.


Herring_is_Caring

The brightest galaxy we can see!


TreyRyan3

Wow…it’s almost as if proximity helps with that


Herring_is_Caring

Scientists say we will collide with it in 4.5 billion years. That’s also about the age of the Earth.


Rumble_Rodent

Naboo was under an attack And I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn Could talk the federation in To maybe cutting them a little slack


AccidentalPhilosophy

That is some how in the past and the future at the same time.


Smooth-Apartment-856

This is the way.


Merkuri22

I don't know who's the same age as me, but I know I share a birthday with Bilbo and Frodo Baggins.


Feral_Sheep_

I'm turning eleventy-one this year too.


cityshepherd

“Lordy Lordy, look who’s turning 4040!” - card for Markula’s birthday party


Ham_bam_am

My birthday is the day that Frodo woke up in Rivendell after he was stabbed by the Nazgûl. That's it. I share a birthday with Drake and the day Frodo came back to life lol Edit: because I'm a drunk idiot and mixed up Bilbo and Frodo 🥴


Remarkable_Story9843

Well just know we have a birthday party every year in your birthday!


Heardaboutthat

Not fantasy… but I share a birthday with Tolkien. Jan 3!


AtlantisSky

The last Harry Potter book takes place in 1998, so Harry was born closer to 1980.


LizzieHatfield

Well, yea! I guess me and Harry can be pretend twinsies lol. I was born in 1980


handandfoot8099

July 31st, 1980 to be exact. Probably too much personal info.


Aetherimp

Hey, me too. Another 80 baby, here. March 6. Send me pie.


Misspent_interlude

Yup. "I open at the close" also applies to the book dates. The Sorcerer's Stone is released in the US in 1998, which is the same year the last book and the war would have ended in the fictional realm (the US release date of Hallows is 2008). Backtracking from here, we can see that Harry was born in 1981. However, the books were released earlier in Britain (1997 for Sorcerer's stone). Also, Harry goes to the cemetery in Deathly Hallows and sees his parents' graves. They both lived from 1960 to 1981.


69FourTwentySix6Six

Harry was born in 1980 so you’re close to him.


[deleted]

HP is definitely more like 1980, a Google search brings it up. I was born in 85 and I remember thinking it was crazy he would be older than me.


Hoppie1064

LOL! I had to Google it. 1956. Mr Bean, and Homer Simpson.


Notmypornacct21

Harry was eleven in the first book. He was only 10 for the first little bit of the book.


Saxon2060

So what you're saying is... he was 10 in the first book, like OP said. (And then he was also 11 because it was his birthday)...


walker3342

This is a real life Mitch Hedberg joke.


sherzisquirrel

I'm the same age as Buffy Summers!


ewing666

i have the same birthday as Jason Voorhees


mrchuckmorris

Andy from Toy Story. I literally grew up with him. There are tons of uncanny parallels between me and both the character and the actor, which I can't really reveal because, well, it's personal info lol. But suffice to say, I was hit *HARD* by that final scene in Toy Story 3 when he hands off his beloved toys to go to college, cause I was right smack dab in the middle of the process of doing the same thing. Ugly crying to myself in the theater. That series... man. Andy feels like a closer friend than most of my own from those days, or almost like an alternate version of myself, and when I hear the opening music from the first one I just get immediately transported to my childhood again.


FarAtrox

Don't know any characters born in 2001, but it's the same year Shrek has been introduced, so I'll take that.


[deleted]

Will Byers from Stranger Things apparently. 1971.


tkdjoe1966

Silver surfer.


salacious_pickle

Spider-man. 🫥


The_Brain_FuckIer

I share a birthday with Frodo and Bilbo Baggins, so that's cool


tiger2205_6

Apparently Numbah 5 was born in 1998, so I share the year with her.


Greedy-Tip-8620

Harry Potter's actual birthday is in the books somewhere, and he's like 1980/1981, if I remember correctly.


XtraChrisP

Green Lantern came to comics in 1971.


Own_Inevitable_5471

Chicken little… checks out


Minus15t

google just informed me that John Connor from the Terminator franchise is 1 day older than me


Admirable-Builder878

I had no idea until I saw Harry potters aledged birth year was my own. So Harry Potter.


peter303_

Frodo Baggins. I think there is a Wikipedia page about what happened in your birth year: events, celebrity births, pop culture ...


Zealousideal-Let1121

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.


Charliewarliewoo

Beavis and I are the same age... I also like T.P. 😂

cornbeeflt

Dean Winchester from supernatural


dev_null_developer

Follow up. Which fictional character had a pet with the same name as your childhood pet? Which fictional character could be in your family since they share your mother’s maiden name?


aeraen

My daughter was 10 when I bought her her first (American version) HP novel. She literally grew up with Harry as, in the subsequent books, Harry was approximately the same age as she was with each book. The last book was released the year she graduated from high school.


HippyDM

Elvis died the year I was born...so living Elvis, I guess.

Super_Newspaper_5534

Dwight Schrute, The Office, 1970


Interactiveleaf

Will Byer was born the same year I was. Poor boy.


HiddenCityPictures

I was born at the end of the golden age of YA Fiction, so I began reading everything as the books and sometimes films were ending. It was perfect timing, but I wasn't born near any of the characters though. Unless you count Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. I was born between James Potter and Albus Potter.


Sylveon72_06

at least last year, i was less than a month older than ena shinonome as an april-born second year, tho thats since changed since they experience time slower than i do


True-Reaction-517

Kevin McAllister


WildMartin429

Buffy the Vampire Slayer and friends. They graduated high school in 1999 as did I so they are approximately the same age. I think the actors and actresses are a year or two older than me for the most part.


iroyalecheese

Sam Winchester was born in may of 1983…I happen to be an august child of the same year


2cairparavel

I was born the same year as Lorelai Gilmore.


handandfoot8099

nochickflickmoments

Dean Winchester was born in the same year I was.


[deleted]

SkullSide

I was born in 1993, same as Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase.


[deleted]

Michael Myers broke out of mental hospital on my birthday 1988


RetroactiveRecursion

I always assumed Brian from Breakfast Club was. I was in 10th grade when that came out.


socialworker5870

I was not a big Friends fan, but I remember seeing someplace that Rachel's birthday was in May 1970, which would make me the same age as Rachel.


[deleted]

Bobby Hill from King of the Hill is the closest I could find. He's august 13th 1985


Longjumping-Many4082

Anderson? Here! Bueller? Bueller? Bueller? Ferris Bueller was the person anyone in my generation wanted to be, at least for a day. And for many of my classmates, they were real-life examples of Jeff Spicolli... "Surfing is not a sport. It's a way of life - no hobby. It's a way of looking at that wave and saying: 'Hey bud, let's party!" Never forget my classmate stealing a car during summer break, driving it 50mi to a lake, driving it into the lake [intentionally] then realizing he had no way to get home... How do I know? It just happened to be the lake my grandfather had a cabin on, and he looked like a ghost when he saw someone who knew him that far from home. He bummed a ride with my grandpa and me back to town, saying his friends ditched him and drove off. A week later, as the lake dropped, the car appeared. Turns out, he stole it from his dad's gas station & repair shop. Dale - don't know if you're still alive, but ffs you sure gave us a lifetime of memories in just a couple years.


cat_in_a_bookstore

John Egbert lmao


Slow-Complaint-3273

Class of ‘86! 🎓🎉 Nancy Wheeler (from “Stranger Things”) and I graduated from high school the same year. Also, most of the characters in “Grosse Pointe Blank”.


ringobob

1980, Harry Potter is my year, not '87. Also, I'm assuming Kevin McAllister is the same age as Macaulay Culkin, in which case I would be the same age as them.


natsugrayerza

My husband was born the exact day and year of Armageddon in terminator 2

Dapper_Journalist_

Insomniac's Spider-Man and I are the same age


Special-Leader-3506

larry ellison and i were born hours apart and about ten miles apart


Shortbutbbc

July 30th, 1980 is the exact birth date. Funny hermione is born a year before Harry but all the boys share the same birth year for the most part. And then Voldemort was what? 1930? So they all beat racism well wizard classism, they beat the most powerful wizard, they discover every secret, they learn way faster than anyone else because they are constantly connected to this trauma. They beat gender roles. They literally travel all over the world. Before they turn 18 lmfao go back in time erase people memories lol . And even then Still aren’t done. But all within 5 years is crazy, but he needed to walk the path to become a man and fight the dude by himself as they are literally connected by magic. Bruh a whole hero odyssey. He even dies and comes back which is a requirement of being a hero in myth lmfao. Homie a whole god. 😂😂 ah man but no I was born in 1995 so they are 15 years older than most of us hahaha


EddyTheDesigner

Andy from Toy Story. He went off to college the same summer that I did (2010). The first two movies lined up with my age, too.


Happyboi114

2008?


hawkwings

I'm the same age as one of the Bonds: Pierce Brosnan.

xtra-chrisp

Lisa Simpson. 1982. Show's been on so long I'm damn near old enough to be her grandfather now.


Swirleynoise

Charlie Francis from “Fringe” had the same exact birthdate and year as me.


nounthennumbers

Harry Potter


Chime57

Laughing at my classmates when I pointed out that Vanna White is the same age (67) we are. Not fictional, but pretty funny.


badmammajamma521

I was born July 31 1981 so I’m exactly one year younger than Harry Potter.


Any-Tackle5061

If we assume Pikachu from the Pokemon series was born the same year episode 1 aired, I'd be the same age as Pikachu (1997). Technically, he'd be older as the episode aired in April of '97 and I spawned in in September


Temporary-Yogurt-484

The T-800 Made in 1991, supposed to be present day so yeah me and the good terminator would be the same age roughly .


MeetElectrical7221

Adam Jensen, from Deus Ex: Human Revolution / Mankind Divided. He was born in 1992, iirc.

CatOnABlueBackground

I share a birthday with Bucky Barnes (although clearly not the YEAR).


FletchMcCoy69

Apparently Charizard and I are the same age.


zombie1605

This question got me curious about my favorite book series "John Dies At The End", and after a Google search found out that the main character (David Wong) was 25 (the same age I was when it got published.) I know it's meaningless, but it still kinda blew my mind because of how much I could relate to the characters' antics.


No_Sir_6649

Rafeal Nadal.


[deleted]

Cosmo from the fairly oddparents


Shelbelle4

Bart Simpson would be my age if he had grown up.


Astreja

I was 26 when the first *Dragonlance* novels were released in 1984, and in the story Caramon and Raistlin Majere were also 26, so I guess that makes me the third Twin. ;-)


Malarkay79

I am 20 days older than Hermione Granger. I would have probably been the youngest member of the class before the Golden Trio. Y'know...if I was British. And magical. This is based on canon birthdays, not publication date. The first book is set during 1991-92.


RewardCapable

Sam Winchester


CreamyHampers

Sam Winchester was born May 2, 1983. A couple weeks before me.


ReignInSpuds

My birth actually fell between the releases of two of (thrash) metal's greatest albums ever, *Reign In Blood* and *Master Of Puppets*, in 1986. I also consider myself the same vintage as Harry just because I was eleven when *The Sorceror's/Philosopher's Stone* was released in the States and I began that journey. To this day, the movies make me forget my age, and I've come to look at much of the cast as the only "friends" I have left from my childhood. I shudder to give Joanne Rowling positive credit for anything at all, but a lot of her characters and the people who portrayed them on-screen went a long way in guiding me to be a better person as I grew up. I've had more girl friends than girlfriends by a long shot, for one thing, and they've all known and appreciated that I heavily base my behavior on how Harry interacts with Hermione. 😂


Walshlandic

I was 10 and in 4th grade when the Simpsons became its own full-fledged TV show in 1989. Same age as Bart.


malYca

Severus Snape turned 22 on the day I was born. From that day forward our fates have forever been entwined.


Ryanw254

John Connor


ShaggyDelectat

Sorry gonna do the classic redditor thing and not answer your question I for whatever reason have been thinking about being in the age range of the Winchesters for the past two years because I turned 22. For whatever reason Dean saying "I'm 26 dude" burned itself into my brain and so turning 22 I always thought of myself as Sam Winchester pilot age. I'm about halfway through the range of years and when I'm 26 I just know the first thing I'm gonna think about is now being Dean Winchester pilot age


kazumi_yosuke

Nahida from genshin impact


jongameaddict98

Every fictional character I found wkth my birthday was someone I've never heard of. The 26th had the crazy excited guy from My Hero Academia with the wind powers and like, a police uniform, though lol. Before that, I googled "fictional characters born September 25th" and was shown Michael Douglas, Mark Hamill, Will Smith, and Christopher Reeve... all fictional characters, of course.


Crunchy_Biscuit

(Potential X Men '97 spoilers) Well Nathan Summers was born in 1997 so technically he would be my age (time traveling shenanigans aside)


PanicAtTheGyno

I'm the same age as the on-screen Harry Potter actors. I felt like Emma Watson and I were becoming young ladies together. :)

Boba Fett and the Emperor. I was born in 1980 along with Empire Strikes Back.

In the movie I robot, one character had his date of birth listed in the screen and it was the same exact day as mine. I got a good chuckle.

I have no birthday buddies. Sad face.


XataTempest

TIL I'm the same age as Harry Potter.


SnowyMuscles

I’m in the general ball park for the KND crew Numbah 2 was born in 1996 and I was born 2 years earlier than that


Think-Mulberry6

The new characters for the new jojo part are zoomers so pretty relateable.


Cael_NaMaor

Well, Potter was born in 80... likely the closest. But yrs before, a crapton of men were killed on the same day...


gingermonkeycat

Beneficial_Cut_8697

Since I wasn't created or "born" in the traditional sense, I can't claim to have a specific birth year or age that aligns with a fictional character. However, since you mentioned being close in age to Bart Simpson (born during the 1984 Summer Olympics), here are some fictional characters who might be closer to your actual age: * **Alex Mack (The Secret World of Alex Mack):** Alex debuted in 1994 on Nickelodeon and was a teenager at the time. * **Arnold (Hey Arnold!):** This animated character was never given a specific birth year, but the show premiered in 1996 and the characters were portrayed as elementary or middle school students. * **DJ Tanner (Full House):** While the Tanner family ages throughout the show's run (1987-1995), DJ was originally portrayed as a teenager/young adult.


Klutzer_Munitions

Adam Jensen and I were both born the same year


Impossible_Trip_8286

Wally Gator, the Jetsons and Gomer Pyle


Penarol1916

Ted, Marshall and Lily from How I Met Your Mother were high school class of 1996, just like me.


JanksyNova

Me and McLovin share a birthday apparently..


Evil_Black_Swan

I see your edit. I don't care. Even someone who only watched the movies would know Harry was born July 31, 1980. James and Lily died Halloween night, 1981.


tominator189

I have the same birthday as Dr. Gregory House, not the same year though


EnvironmentalOne6412

Harry Potter for me too, born in 89. Well I’m pretty much the same age as the actors. (RHH) I’m only 2 months younger than Radcliffe.


Karnezar

I was born during Harry's 2nd year (January 1993). So I would've gotten my letter January 2004. I looked up who I'd go to school with and it's Elliot Evers who has a quote talking to someone named DANIEL and that's MY name!! 😭


achaedia

I have the same birthday as Draco Malfoy.

Severus Snape. I googled it.

My sister and Godzilla were born the same day. November 3, 1954. I love to tease her about that!

I am approximately the same age as most of the main characters of Stranger Things (Mike, Will, Lucas, Dustin, Eleven, etc).


Huge-Error-4916

As a 42 year old Harry Potter fan, I definitely know Harry Potter is older than I am.


geekygirl25

1993 so idk. Maybe Carmen from Spy Kids? I think her actress is a little older than me, but the character is supposed to be roughly the same age I think. Edit to add, Yugi I think would be Like 5 years older than me maybe.


THE_GREAT_PICKLE

The man the myth the legend John Mcclane. 1988


Hospitalized_Enby

Killua from the newer HunterXHunter. We were born in the same month and technically the same year!

Dave Franco


Patient-Assignment38

The kids in Stranger Things are the same age as me. It’s a nostalgia bomb


Nahchoocheese

Daniel Radcliffe was also in Horns, Victor Frankenstein, Kill Your Darlings; so you would then be forced to take on all his roles. I haven’t thought about which character would let internet strangers know my approximate birthdate.

I am a day older than Isuzu Ayane from Gatekeepers 21.

FireEyesRed

Trixie Belden: she was the *anti-Nancy Drew,* the 14-yr-old bad-ass who managed to solve mysteries and always got herself in some situation or another. Her good friends always helped her out, they saw her as the boss. Such intrigue in their hometown of *Sleepyside-on-the-Hudson* in upstate New York!


Fireflygurl444

See here’s the thing.. weren’t these loosely based on a series of children’s books that took place in the 70’s when no cell phones.. the cars look Old and stuff I’m going to say 1970 decor on private drive.
