Again, sorry for the long hiatus. The second year of dental school is by far the busiest, but that's no excuse. You'll get getting a new post shortly. In the meantime, take a whack at this trivia question:
Match these characters' names with their origins:
__1.) Albus ------------------------A.) A character from Shakespeare's "A Winter's Tale"
__2.) Argus -----------------------B.) Old Norse for "Having the Gods' Power"
__3.) Dumbledore -----------------C.) Latin for "White"
__4.) Ron ------------------------- D.) 18th century English for "Bumblebee"
__5.) Snape -----------------------E.) An English Village in North Yorkshire
__6.) Hermione -------------------F.) In Greek mythology, a watchman with a hundred eyes
(All but one of these origins are verified by JKR. In other words, the meanings were intentionally given to these characters. Bonus point to who can tell me which name's meaning was not intentionally given by JKR.)
