Harry Potter inspired names?

[Cortina]

Do you know anyone who has been inspired?

Which are your favourites/could you seriously use?:

Boys

Draco
Lucius
Severus
Ron
Harry
Albus (?)
Others?????

Girls

Ginny
Hermione
Luna

I have to say, I wouldn't use any of these. Not being a big fan of the whole Harry Potter thing, I wouldn't fancy naming my child after a character in a kid's book.

Ginny is Ginevra which I quite like.

Don't forget Fred, George, Percy, Charlie, Bill, James, Lily, Neville, Lee, Seamus, Lavender etc etc.

Fred, (Weasley)
George,(Weasley)
James (arry's dad)
Lily (Harry's mum)
Tom (Riddle)

Harry,
Ron,
Hermione,
Ginny,

Would not dream of using
Draco
Lucius
Severus

I would either go for Luna (which I love) or Sirius!

What about Ludo? It's a name I love anyway.

Sirius is quite cool.

And Remus?

Bella
Blaise
Pansy
Hugo
Rose
Fleur
and my personal favourite if I ever have another DS, Voldemort.

hedwig!

There's also Cornelius (Fudge)!

I can't decide whether or not I like Cornelius as a name. The nn of Corny is bad... But maybe Cory could be used?

mrsvwoolf, I love that you think Cedric is a possibility but Ric is worse!!!

I love Arianna (Dumbledore's sister I think) and wished desperately I hadn't stumbled across it the week after we'd registered DD3 - maybe just maybe if there is a DD4

Always liked Fenrir

scabbers

Or Cornelia for a girl, which is lovely!

Barty (Crouch)

I called one of my dc after a favourite character in a book but the name is fairly mainstream so no-one else knows. These are my personal favorite HP names
Fleur
Victore
Severus
Albus
Molly
Arthur
James
Lily
Bathilda
Bellatrix

DD called her hamster Hermione

mumzy - my DD3 is after a character in a book too - I've no problem with it either

I love Hermiony, Ginny and Luna. I also love Harry. I think you can get away with Harry, Ron and Ginny, Hermiony, dumbledore and Voldermort are definatly out.

My DS is 13, his Dad's surname is Potter. Harry was on our shortlist but I thank GOD in hindsight we didn't use it. His late Grandad was called Harold Potter

I have always loved Hermione but the HP books put me off it... shame.

jingle.. your hamster got off lightly. My rabbits are called Sharpay and Gabriella

if you really couldnt decide: He who must not be named

There's also Gregory and Vincent
