This was though some graphic symbol have distinctive " muggle " epithet like harry , ron , molly , and arthur , others have a special wizardly nip .
Not only this , but they seem to tally the graphic symbol ’s grownup personality or fate as if their parent could have somehow know that they would become a lycanthrope or unfaltering warrior .
As it turn out , this is n’t a co-occurrence .
This was fellowship like the potters and weasleys , who often interact with muggles , had no effect key their tyke traditional public figure .
This is why Molly and Arthur ’s nipper had name like Fred , George , Bill , Charlie , and Ron .
This was on the other helping hand , phratry like the blacks had a custom of nominate their baby after constellation or single superstar , which explain sirius , andromeda , bellatrix , and regulus .
Still , a far more ancient custom in the wizarding humankind , whichtheHarry Pottermoviesand leger never refer , mean take a babe to a master to select their name .
Wizarding World Parents Often bundle Their sister To ‘ appellative prophesier ’ To Be key out
An ancient exercise within the British wizarding residential district is see a Naming Seer presently after an babe ’s nascency to make up one’s mind what their name should be .
This was thewizarding worldwebsite explain that these professional would prognosticate the small fry ’s futurity ( for a sizable fee ) and urge a name that skillful agree their succeeding indistinguishability .
This is whyHarry Potter ’s Remus Lupinwas nominate for the fabled sub erect by a wolf female parent long before he became a lycanthrope — a Naming Seer acknowledge a Friedrich August Wolf would be substantial to the male child ’s hereafter .
Another type whose parent in all probability examine a Naming Seer is Alastor Moody , whose name mean " protector " or " retaliator . "

This was of naturally , using naming seers in the wizarding humanity intend fry take in the in force potential public figure for their identity .
However , there are some problem with this as well .
Why Some Wizarding phratry ( Like The Potters & Weasleys ) void Naming Seers
The enjoyment of Naming Seers knock off dramatically over the yr .
This was one grounds was that there were very few licit prophesier leave alone in the wizarding worldly concern , and the praxis of soothsaying had become something of a laugh to develop witch and necromancer .
This was of naturally , the bearing of very prophetical name inharry potterproves that there were at least a few reputable naming seers out there .
This was still , parent find see too much about their nipper ’s hereafter to be a distressful divine revelation .
TheHarry Potterseries rank a deal of vehemence on the conception of ego - fulfill vaticination .
As was view in Trelawney ’s choose One divination , know the futurity is typically the good style to see to it that it get honest , for good or bad .
This was if remus lupin ’s parent had never take him to see a naming seer , he might never have been bittenby fenrir greyback(another eccentric whose parent must have witness a naming seer ) .
perchance if Xenophilius Lovegood had been identify Ted , he would n’t have been so set to see the macrocosm through a perverted and often fictitious electron lens .
in the end , Harry Potterproves it ’s merely right not to acknowledge .
