[Opinions] Dude, it's NOT Harry Potter AT ALL.
And for that matter, neither is Lily, James, Harry, Fred, George, Oliver, Dolores, Ariana, Peter, Molly, Charlie, Bill, Percy, Seamus, Lavender, Dean, Teddy, Tom, Bertha, Rose, Hugo, Gabrielle, Viktor, Horace, Aurora, Charity, Neville, Wilhelmina, Fabian, Gideon, Frank, Amelia, Rufus, Stan, Cornelius, Amos, Cedric, Alice, Frank, or any of the purposefully REALLY traditional or even slightly out-there (but still traditional) names JK often picked for her characters. Arthur is great. Handsome and dignified. I'm not too keen on Art but I don't mind it.

Damn straight.Arthur is, if anything, a legendary king to me first and foremost, NOT the father of Harry Potter's sidekick. People will say to me, "Oh, you like a lot of HP names." I like Arthur, George, Percy, Alice, Poppy, Minerva...there are so many names in that book, how is one supposed to avoid them?Anyway, on the topic of Arthur, I think it's a smashing name. Art is fine too, though I probably wouldn't use it.

ME TOO!Don't get me wrong, I love Harry Potter and Arthur Weasley is excellent, but if anything it's an Arthurian legend name.I think it's a good name. Arthur is a common name in my family. I plan on using it as a middle name for a son for that reason.
