In addition to the readers' favorite characters which you can read yourself, here are their favorite couples (it's below and rather small in the japanese page) :
I love that Conan x KID takes place 3. KID is such a pedophile :v
Also, it's not in the pictures below, but Gosho says in an interview in the magazine that the 'Ai' in Haibara Ai actually comes from 'Irene Adler' (jap. Airiin Adoraa).
Edit: I'm blind

Funny, I would have thought Vermouth would have the Irene role.

It is, but I think Aoyama is allowed to say something different because the V.I. Warshawski bit was actually said by Agasa in story. Aoyama never stated it himself in one of his after volume bits as V.I. Warshawski was used in Volume 12 and Haibara wasn't introduced until Volume 18.

On this subject, I've always felt like some of the name origins were a bit... loose, and tacked on after the fact. Some are more clear, but others felt like they were more word associations than direct influences.
