Titania was a character in William Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Owen Harper once quoted the line "well met by moonlight, proud Titania". He studied the play at school though admitted to also having seen a porn adaptation entitled A Midsummer Night's Wet-Dream. (PROSE: Slow Decay)

Shakespeare based A Midsummer Night's Dream on a midsummer night's dream of his own, one which evidently featured an early version of Titania. The entry in his dream diary for 24 June 1594 was the inspiration for the play and he subsequently transcribed it into the Shakespeare Notebooks. One of the characters contained within was the "butterfly queen" Tetynia and the first line, spoken by "butterfly king" Hrobron, was "Ill met by moons' light, proud Tetynia". (PROSE: The Dream)
