I know that 'filius' means 'son', and I would rather his name was 
Filibert, which is supposed to mean 'much bright' and sounds 
fluttery. Altho' there would be much to say for 'Fiametto' : as 
'little fire', it would mean sparks, which are bright and fluttery. 

What is so great about 'Xiomara', other than alliterating and being 
better than *yuck* Rolanda? It sounds Peruvian, but 
http://www.behindthename.com/ says: "XIOMARA (f) Possibly a Spanish 
form of GUIOMAR" and "GUIOMAR (m,f) Possibly "famous in battle" 
(Germanic). In Arthurian legend he was the cousin of Guinevere who 
became a lover of Morgan le Fey and was later banished for it." (I 
never heard of any such thing in Arthurian legend, but I am not an 
expert.)

For a year, I have been hearing occasionally on the news (as a silly 
news item) that Tourism UK is publishing a Harry Potter guidebook in 
hope of luring American tourists who were scared off by the triple 
whammy of mad cow, hoof and mouth, and September 11. I have never 
been able to find it on the Web. G'rrr
