if you had to name you child after a Harry Potter character what would you choose?

Boy- Sirius or Draco
Girl- Bellatrix or Myrtle

I couldn't do it; but I would go for the actors and have a son called Alan.

bet you're fun at parties. why bother posting if you're just going to engage with the thread? you should have chosen Myrtle.

Rowena. Not just because it's my favourite house, but the name itself is well known enough to not have the immediate HP association something like Hermione has, isn't too popular like Harry but equally normal enough and easy to pronounce, and tbh I just like it!

Lily or Luna for a girl and Lucius or James for a boy

Lavender or Sybil for a girl Arthur for a boy.

Does no one fancy Vernon or Dudley?

Rowena and Orion

Sirius and Andromeda. I love the names that the old wizarding families use.

Tom or Luna (but Ginny and Hermione are alright too!)

Cedric and Ginny

Boy - Harry.
Girl - Luna.

Draco or Kingsley
Lavender or Arabella

Bella and Dray sound so cool actually.

I didn't realise actually how many really cool and amazing names are in all the Harry Potter books!

Neville, Aberforth or Firenz

Hermione, Katie or Luna

other contenders were Olympe but my sister is Olivia and that sounds too similar

Thorfinn is a death eater and gives me the same vibes as Wolfgang which I have always loved

Marvolo is cool

Grindlewald is a good name for a cat

I love the name Draco. Luckily I was talked out of it because of the connotations but it’s an excellent name, as are Sirius, Orion and abraxus, phineas is quite good too. For girls I love Apolline

there are a few more usable names like violetta and Augusta, and of the more common names I actually really like Molly and Enid

Seamus and Albus for my boys
Luna and Rita for my girls

Sirius, Remus and Lucius are all genuinely excellent names. I also like James, George, Kingsley, Cormac.

Girls names, I like Cho, Bellatrix, Angelina and Rose (Hermione's daughter). Minerva too.

Our dog had to be called an actor’s name starting with R so he got Ralph Fiennes. That’s as near as I’d go.
Fred, George and Bill are normal names. Kingsley Shacklebolt is very sonorous.
What’s Molly short for? Margaret?
Edit: Mary.

Luna or Lucius.

I wanted to call DD Bellatrix (Trixie) for short but got talked round! Also liked Lily but it was so popular when we had DD that we changed our minds.
Blaise is cool for a boy.

Sirius and Helena

Also like Charlie, Albus and Gregory; Fleur, Katie, Poppy.

Ginny was the name I wanted for a girl since I was a girl - but I had a boy. Way before HP.
Garrick (Ollivander) is quite a cool name!

I wanted to call my DS either Lucius, Sirius or Remus. DH vetoed!

We went with Charlie in the end. Still a HP name, just not an obvious one.

Luna. I lived in Spain for years so feel a bit attached to it.
