Help[Opinions] Re: Angharad
in reply to a message by Briallen
I'm a Harry/Hermione shipper myself, though I could easily go for Harry/Luna. Draco can have Ginny, lol.
Just to keep the post on topic, I don't believe JKR has used any Welsh names in the books, has she? I know she's used some Scottish names and some Irish ones, but no Welsh, which is odd since Wales is in the UK as well.

I'm totally a Harry/Luna shipper! lol
The guy that teaches them how to apparate in the 6th book - I thought he had a Welsh name but I can't remember it off the top of my head and I don't have my books with me... ?
Twywn or something like that maybe? Is that even Welsh? lol
I was wondering the same thing! She has obvious English kids, obvious Irish (well...only Seamus seems obviously Irish to me) and I assume there MUST be Scottish kids since the school's in Scotland but Welsh... I've never read a really 'Welsh' name in any of the books! How odd :)

Harry and Luna would be sweet together. Have you ever checked out FictionAlley's Harry/Luna ship thread? Uber cute.
I found a Welsh name! Dilys Derwent. She was a Headmistress of Howarts and a healer.
I'm gonig to have to search out some more names, though, because now my curiosity has the better of me. http://www.hp-lexicon.org is my friend... :)

oh my I was addicted to the Lexicon last summer! I'm surprised I didn't even think of it! They have every name ever mentioned in Harry Potter in a very nice list :)
omg, I adore FictionAlley! I worked for the site for a short period a few years back, taking care of the art section but it was too much (I was in high school at the time and that plus school + sports + clubs was TOO much) and I just recently started posting a story I wrote on there lol I'm in the Dark Arts, pcharmed86, look me up :) My obvious fascination for names really shows in my stories I think lol
back to topic... Dilys Derwent! Well there's a name I certainly wouldn't have thought of! lol Very pretty meaning though.
