Hey everyone, I hope you're all enjoying books 1 and 2. I got a little carried away and am now on book 6...oops. I'm planning to write a real post on 1 and 2 soon; I've been thinking a lot about the sorting hat and the whole choice vs abilities thing (why isn't Hermione in Ravenclaw?), but in the meantime, I wanted to post this link. It's a fansite, so it can be a little silly, but this page is a great place to start if you're interested in the origins of JK Rowling's names and other words. (Some of the entries should be taken with a grain of salt, but you'll know them when you see them)
