I just realized Charlotte is named after the mom in the book Lolita
Post Body
So I never realized this and it might be obvious to some, but Penny's mom Charlotte is named after "Charlotte Haze" from the book Lolita. In the book the pedo Humbert marries Charlotte so he can be with and groom her daughter Dolores who he nicknames "Lolita". Now the book is pretty misrepresented by a lot of people, but it is 100% condemning the actions of the "protagonist" Humbert Humbert who is obviously a disgusting pedophile.

How so?
Bojack didn't even know the daughter until staying with the family, so there was nothing predetermined, no grooming—the daughter was the initiator, and was over the age of majority (for sexual relations) anyway.
Perhaps the writers were inspired by the fact that they'd already named Charlotte what they did, but still decided to have only superficial resemblance (at most) to the Lolita story.
