Hi, I had a fanfic idea forever ago that I was re-visiting and I had a couple of character names written down. It's obviously a Harry Potter fanfic, next generation, and I was looking for names with meanings that relate to the Hogwarts Houses. They can be male or female.

The only names I found were:

Valerie/Valerius: meaning "strong, healthy" and brings to mind the word "valor" (Gryffindor)

Sophia: "wisdom" (Ravenclaw)

Any suggestions would be most appreciated!!

Goodness   That is a lot!  Thank you so much.  So much I never even considered.  I especially love Arsenio for a Slytherin.  That one really popped out at me. 

[PaperHeart]

Katie, I had so much time on my hands yesterday since school only starts tomorrow!   

 

Glad you liked it! Sorry, I know it's long!
