There’s fandom, and then there’s Harry Potter fandom. Because they’re not just books or movies! J.K. Rowling created a whole, ornate universe and filled it with stories that are universal, moving, and still hold true today as well as when you read them more than a decade ago. They never get old and there’s always something new and unique to discover with each time you reread a book or re-watch a movie.
That being said, do you feel comfortable with naming off those obscure Harry Potter characters? (Full disclosure, we’re talking about the books as well as the movies, so movie fans – go read a book!) In the moment, you’d totally know who we’re talking about… but, honestly, when’s the last time you reread book six? They’re long! And detailed! There’s no way you remember absolutely everyone.
We’re going to give you names of real Harry Potter characters and we’re going to give you magical names that are totally made up. Can you tell the difference? Pick out the real characters from the bunch and see how you do!
