In the romantic comedy My Big Fat Greek Wedding, what is the first name of Toula's fiancé?

The story behind the answer

In My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Toula's fiancé is named Ian Miller.

Toula Portokalos, played by Nia Vardalos, is a 30-year-old Greek American woman whose family expects her to marry a Greek man. Instead, she falls in love with Ian Miller, played by John Corbett, who is not Greek.

Ian's relationship with Toula drives the film's central cultural-comedy storyline. He tries to win over her large and highly involved family, while Toula changes her life by taking classes, learning computer skills, and working at her family's travel agency.

Nia Vardalos wrote the screenplay, drawing on elements of her own one-woman stage show and Greek family background. The 2002 film became a major box-office success and received an Academy Award nomination for Vardalos's original screenplay.
