Another meaning of Umbrige’s first name is that “dolor” is Spanish for “pain” with”dolores” being the plural. This goes with how she causes immense pain to countless people, both physically and emotionally Edit: after checking a translator, the same also holds true for Latin
I was looking for this. It often referes to one of th surnames of the Holy Mother in that to the Holy Mother who sufferes seven pains through her live.
Padma Patil - Padma is a sanskrit word which means Lotus. Head of the village is called as 'patil' . Parvati Patil - Parvati is a hindu goddess.The word itself means daughter of the mountains....She is also called 'sakti' which means power . /force.
These are very old fashioned names even for the 90s. They sound like the kind of names kids growing up in the 70s would've had. I guess all the Indians Rowling hung out with or knew of were Late Boomers or Early Gen X
Surprised you didn't mention how several of the Weasley family have names related to Arthurian Legends and medieval kings - King Arthur, Percy (short for Percival), Ginevra is a version of Guinevere, William the Conqueror)
There are a great many comparisons between Harry and the legend of king Arthur, a young man destined for greatness raised as a commoner unaware of his heritage, mentored by a wise and powerful wizard (merlin/Dumbledore) has a small group of loyal allies (Knights of the round table/Dumbledores army) with a destiny to defeat a powerful evil (Morgan LeFey/Voldemort), even pulling a legendary sword from an object because he was worthy (stone/hat) and even marries a woman call Ginevra/Guinevere
MovieFlame works so hard to make videos on Harry Potter, even though the series ended so long ago. It's nice to still have some harry potter content to listen to. Also, Luna's mother, pandora. Something went very wrong, causing her death. This may be tied to the story of Pandora's box, where pandora got too curious and unleashed bad things onto the world.
7:05 Bellatrix is also a name of a star, the right shoulder of Orion. It is a tradition for the Black family to be named after stars (or galaxies, Andromeda)
13:27 Dolores also means 'pains' in Spanish, which is represented by her punishment involving making students carve the words "I must not tell lies" into their hands
In the Dutch translation, some of the names are also genius puns: Dumbledore is Perkamentus (Perkament = parchment) McGonagall is Anderling, “ander” meaning someone else, refering to McGonagall being an Animagus Trelawney is Zwamdrift, “zwam”means mushroom or bullshitting, and drift means to want something very much. Here name literally means “wants to talk bullshit” 😂 Hermione’s name is Hermelien Griffel, a griffel is a stylus or pencil, and the phrase “tien met een griffel” (an A with a stylus) means to ace a test Weasley is Wemel in Dutch. “Wemelen” means that it’s very crowded somewhere, tying in to the fact there’s many Weasleys. Scrimgeour is Schobbejak, which means lowly criminal Stan Shunpike is Sjaak Stuurman (stuur = to steer/drive and man is well… man) so he’s a driving man… McNair is Vleeschouwer, wich combined “vlees” (meat) with “houwer” (cutter), making his name mean “meat cutter” since he’s Buckbeak’s executionist. Tom Riddle is Marten Viliin (I know, very different, but otherwise the anagram did not work). The word “vilein” (pronounced the same as “vilijn” means cunning and villainous, and is therefore also a pun. There’s many more examples of punny names in the Dutch translation (all of the names got Dutchified (except for Harry Potter), but these were the best ones.
For anyone wondering, Cedric's last name Diggory comes from the Tales of Narnia, where he is a main character in The Magician's Nefew and was there when the world of Narnia was created, and then responsible, as the old professor, for the siblings to first go to Narnia themselves, even if not intentionally
And you probably also know, the word "lunatic," or its shortened form, "loony," come from the ancient superstition that the full moon could make people go crazy. So, when Ginny nicknames Luna as "Loony Lovegood," it works as both a cute diminutive of Luna's name, and as a joke about people thinking she's a little bit insane.
I went on a Harry Potter tour in Edinburgh and we visited a graveyard that JK would walk around in with her daughter. The name of the graveyard is called Greyfriars and its where she got inspiration for Greyback's name. Also she got the name McGonagall and a few others i cant remember from a tombstone and he was a poet.
As a fanfic writer I also feel its important that the names I chose for my original characters somehow match what their character does. For example my OC Akiko who in my fanfics is Zuko's true love name means "Bright Light" She's both the bright light in Zuko's life and she teaches the gang ENLIGHTMENT like her adopted father Iroh. So tha one example. I won't list them all but you get the idea.
2:18 - When you said "Farenheit," you were referring to "Farenheit 451." While we're discussing nomenclature, it's worth noting that the "The temperature at which book paper catches fire and burns," though it varies depending on the type of paper.
Also myrtles last name warren could be a reference to hiding in a bathroom stall, but still getting killed by a snake. Also could explain why she doesn't like ron(rabbits are often hunted by weasels)
(1:00) his second name, potter, was actually the last name of a family that Rowling lived near, but she said that she didn’t base Harry on any of the kids
Great video! You should make videos about Harry Potter words and names in other languages. You could get multiple videos out of that, maybe a whole series!
I'm assuming Fred and George refer to George III and his father Prince Frederick of Wales? Frederick died before his father, George II, so it was his son who became George III.
8:50 Also in Hindu Mythology Lord Vishnu rests on his giant serpent "Sheesh Naag"...And Lord Shiva generally has a "Naag" (snake) wrapped around his neck
Padma means a lotus flower whereas Parvati is a goddess in hindu history. Patel means a headman of village and is rather a famous last name in India. Ig jk just randomly named them these names or was there any meaning you can find relating to the character?
@@Shternzdracorex's species name is hogwartsi ( in think ) so it's technically named after Hogwarts. And besides, Dracorex might not have existed. Paleontologists believe that Dracorex might have been a young pachycephalosaurus.
16:31 in the year 861, Khan Krum founded Bulgaria in the place where it is located to this day. Apparently Rowling wanted to include a major part of the history of the country she chose for the Quidditch world cup by giving Victor the surname Krum
Been loving the videos! I loved watching and reading Harry Potter, got out of it, and then saw your videos that got it back into me! It’s so cool learning about new Harry Potter facts, and etc. Makes me know way more!😂 Keep up the good work man! ❤
Guy Fawkes is also held in New Zealand, although being able to buy fireworks is being made impossible by the government and trying to stick to public displays is suggested. This is because of animals being affected, stupidity when lighting them resulting in serious injuries. Although the British colonised New Zealand, I don’t see why we should celebrate guy fawkes when it happened in another country over 200 years ago - it’s also a waste of money - really expensive to buy them
Hermione is also the name of Helen of Troy's daughter with her real husband King Menelaus, born BEFORE the Trojan War... Helen says so herself in The Odyssey, adding that she regretted leaving her behind during the war!
Albus and Rubeus were father figures to Harry, White and Red were the 2 main components of the Philosophers Stone and J.K. Rowling confirmed this. SuperCarlinBrothers make a similar theory, but with Sirius Black.
There is also Henry Tonks, the facial injury artist. He drew pictures of soliders who had suffered facial injuries during WWI. He had worked for plastic surgery pioneer Harold Gillis who Vampire Diaries and The Originals actor Daniel Gillies is related to. Henry Tonks had drawn pictures of soliders who had facial injuries before they had plastic surgery under Sir Harold Gillies.
Absolutely AMAZING 🤩!!!! Some of these I knew not many though. I was curious about the dumbledore's pet Fawkes. I knew the history of Guy Fawkes in Britain. But it makes sense that she did that. JK Rowling is very well read kind of like a bookworm just like Hermione. I found her name quite fascinating. I wonder what Joanna means for that matter Rowling?
I like writing novels but I feel very difficult to name the characters. So I think Rowling is very good at naming the characters. I never think that there is deeper meaning behind it!
Snape is an english village, and a manor that once belonged to Catherine Parr's first husband. Hagrid comes from hagridden- meaning, nightmare - ridden by hags. Many of the names were discussed by Stephen Fry, actually, in the QI series. :)
"Draconian" was actually named after the Greek lawmaker Draco, who made nearly any crime in Athens punishable by death. To be honest, that interpretation is more Umbridge's domain.
Another perhaps un-founded theory for the last name Pettigrew could be translated as the "pet that grew''. As seen in the Prisoner of Azkaban, Peter, being the Animagus that he was, eventually grew(transfigured) from his pet rat form Scabbers, into his human form Peter Pettigrew, hence the name.

Hi morgan, i just wanted to say i love the video and andromia is also the name for a consultation and going off from bon fire night there are firework displays that happen around that date but still great facts and great digging to find them all
Katniss - Derived from the botanical name for the arrowhead plant, Sagittaria, which means archer or hunter; Katniss hunts to feed her family, being adept with archery. (The article I learned this from actually had MovieFlames video embedded.) Peeta - A homophone for "pita," which is a type of bread; Peeta came from a family of bakers. Primrose - A flower that has medicinal uses; Prim becomes a young medic later in the series. Panem - Taken from "panem et circenses," a Roman term that translates to "bread and circuses(or games)," which refers to gaining public approval through cheap methods that are meant to distract people from issues rather than put in the effort to fix anything; the Hunger Games have become a sort of sporting event for the districts, despite having originally been a punishment in light of district thirteen's failed rebellion.
I hope movie flame does a video like this for the hunger games! It would be really interesting! Also, every time Movieflame uploads a video I get my hopes up that it’s The 2ND PART OF AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER! Please! Everyone is waiting for that part Movieflame! Like this comment, if you want the 2nd part too!
What a great video! I don’t think I’ve ever seen one like this before. I was most interested by the meaning of Cornelius and Argus. Wild House, so many of these were predictive of things that would come later in the story!
Good video! I'd love a similar video on The Hunger Games, since those names also have deeper meanings (with many being derived from similar source material to Harry Potter).
For the Fred and George one, Frederik (who JK refers to) is Frederik, Prince of Wales, who died before he became King. When Fredrick’s father died, Frederick’s son, George became King George III of Great Britain.
Seeing as Kingsley is a British character, I don’t think his name would only be referring to America, especially since the majority of black slaves went to Brazil, the Caribbean, South America, and of course, were enslaved in Africa and still are today.
Percival = To Peirce the Blade and was one of King Arthur's best knights, remembered for his quest for the Holy Grail. Wulfric = Wolf Power/Ruler, it's Medieval form 'Ulric' was worn by earl and a saint. Brian = High and Noble, symbolising virtue and strength.
one thing i really love about draco's name's is that the chinese fandom describe draco as "he is the dusk that cannot fall to night nor a dawn that can shine up bright" referencing the constellation's position in the sky and draco's character in the story, a person who is never actually evil yet also cannot truly turn good, it is just so 'chef's kiss', it's referenced in several draco based videos in bilibili
6:31. Remus also used the code name “Romulus” in deathly hallows, nice tie in
Another meaning of Umbrige’s first name is that “dolor” is Spanish for “pain” with”dolores” being the plural. This goes with how she causes immense pain to countless people, both physically and emotionally
Edit: after checking a translator, the same also holds true for Latin
I was looking for this. It often referes to one of th surnames of the Holy Mother in that to the Holy Mother who sufferes seven pains through her live.
Padma Patil - Padma is a sanskrit word which means Lotus. Head of the village is called as 'patil' .
Parvati Patil - Parvati is a hindu goddess.The word itself means daughter of the mountains....She is also called 'sakti' which means power . /force.

“Oh dear! I sure hope my son Wolf Wolf McWolferson doesn’t get attacked by a werewolf!”
That is actually hillarious
That’s is really funny

It's like naming your son Griffindoor Griffy McGryffindor
Or like naming a fairy Blaze even if the fairy selection system is random
Also, Pomona, Professor Sprout's first name, was a Roman Goddess of fruit trees, gardens and orchards.

All but Percy & Ronald have royal names. Harry is from Henry, which is also a royal name.

Also Bella means beautiful in Latin, and I think she was described to be really beautiful, but with hate on her face taking that away.
In Latin it means warrior, that's my cat's name
Not just the Black family. Voldy's mom is named after a star in the Taurus constellation!
Then it makes sense why Andromeda was the only one of the three sisters who started off on the right path: she shone the brightest!
Lyall and Hope really named their child Wolf John McWolf and Greyback had a fieldday when he came to know the Lyall's son's name

Another interesting one: Salazar Slytherin. Who was named after Portuguese dictator António de Oliveira Salazar.
