Has anyone here considered naming their kids/pets after harry potter characters? If so, what name and why?

I'm heavily considering using Hermione for a daughter and maybe Severus for a cat lol

Do you have any pets named after Harry Potter characters?

I have a pitbull named Luna, she was originally going to be named Potter due to a marking on her head, but she just fits Luna's whimsical personality more. I'd love to see pictures as well if you want to share!

[Harry Potter] The owl, cat, or toad requirement for pets just needs special permission from the headmaster to get around, which is usually granted and is mostly so people don't bring dangerous pets

So on the list, Harry sees he can bring an owl, a cat, or a toad. However, we know that these aren't actually the only options. Ron has a rat, and Harry's son has a ferret (can't remember if that was in the book or just movie, but doesn't matter because there's still Ron).

The explanation for this is that you can bring an animal other than an owl, a rat, or a toad. But you need to ask the headmaster first. And I would think in most cases, it's granted.

The real intention of the rule is that so people don't bring something stupid/dangerous, like a dragon, to school.

Ok, so who of you has a pet with a name from the harry potter universe?

I have an orange cat and keep thinking "should have called him crookshanks". It made me wonder how many crookshanks are out there?

And then it made me wonder further, I wonder how many buckbeaks are out there, or aragogs, or fluffys.

Would love to hear about your hp pet.

[Harry Potter] what was the logic of letting Harry participate in the Triwizard game when his name came out of the Goblet of Fire?

Like he was too young to participate and was a fourth contestant. Surely Dumbledore and the other staff could have just said no, he’s not not competing? I’m sure there was some reasoning for why he HAD to participate but I can’t remember what it was

Any other people here have have one of their names because their parents are Harry Potter fans?

My parents are both massive fans. Slytherin merch is scattered all about the house (birthdays were always fun!). They met at Harry Potter club as well which is a really funny story. But anyways, my father's last name is Granger. And he was really dead set on naming me Hermione and after a long time of trying had my mother convinced to do the same. Except she refused to do it at the end in case I get bullied. The settled on giving it to me as my second last name. So it's kinda snuck in there but not too used.

You can communicate with the creature perfectly and it is loyal to you. But you would be obligated to find a place for your creature to live.

Information on each creature

Basilisk: giant snake with eyes that magically kill whoever sees them, and petrifies anyone who sees them indirectly

Hippogriff: winged horse with the head and claws of an eagle

Thestral: winged horse that is invisible only to those that have never seen someone die

Phoenix: immortal bird with healing tears that can combust itself or teleport someone

Dragon: winged fire-breathing reptile slightly larger than a tyrannosaurus

Acromantula: giant talking spider

Why does Harry in dimension and time travel stories to the late 1970s and early 1980s pretty much always change his name in order to not be related to the living Potters?

His name isn't the problem. There are plenty Potters. He could just say he is a Muggleborn and that's it. His last name doesn't give any indication that he is related to James, Fleamont etc.

But what does make him suspicious is his appearance. If Harry really does look so much like his parents/like a Potter from Fleamont's family, then wouldn't people notice the similarities at the very latest when he is standing right next to them? I'm sure no one would think that he comes from another place entirely, but it does seem like something to keep in mind.

I translated all of the Harry Potter Books Names around 7 times and back to English and this is what I got

Philosophers Stone: Harry Potter and the Flossers Stone. Chamber of Secrets: Harry Potter and the House of Secrets. Prisoner of Azkaban: Harry Clay and the Azkjaban Prisoners. Goblet of Fire: Harry Potter and the Potter of Fire. Order of Pheonix: Harry Potter VS the Red Pheonix Order. Half Blooded Prince: Harry Potter and the Semi-Bloody Masterpiece. Deathly Hallows: Harry Potter and the dead Lyme.

All of the names altogether: Welcome. Edit: I tried it again and the Philosophers Stone turned into the Stone of Pigs, Phoenix Order turned into the Pheonix Association and Deathly Hallows turned into the Reaper Amulet Second Edit 1 minute later: Tried it again and the prisoner of Azkaban turned into O'bandi Ajkaban

Suggestions?

edit: you guys are all awesome! Thanks so much!!

edit2: our final selections are Silver Doe Cove, Burrow Drive and (me personal fav) Luna Lane. Thanks for all your help. Some really great options in there but the sales guys tempered some back.... For some reason Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore Drive got the ax..

What would you name Harry Potter's children?

There's always been discussions within the fandom about whether or not the chosen names were good names or something a random Wattpad writer would have chosen.

In the seventh book we find out that Harry and Ginny's children are called James Sirius (after Harry's father and godfather), Albus Severus (after Dumbledore and Snape) and Lily Luna (after Harry's mother and Harry and Ginny's common friend).

A lot of people think that these (fictional) children would have a hard time with establishing their own identity and the HP fandom overall seems to dislike Albus Severus especially since his namesakes are quite controversial characters.

So I thought I'd ask the name nerd community for your opinions! Any Potterheads here? Do you agree with the original names or would you change them? And to what?

Harry is a dyed in the wool anarchist who wants nothing to do with the wizarding nobility. Unfortunately for him, he’s Lord Hadrian James Too-Many-Last-Names-Potter and keeps acquiring titles of nobility faster than he can get rid of them.

β€œCall me Lord Hadrian James Potter-Black-Peverell-Gryffindor again and I will hex you.”

β€œThe system of wizarding nobility is absurd and needs to be abolished.”

β€œHow can you say that Lord Potter?”
