A Question to the Czech listmembers

[Maria Gromova]

Some time ago I saw a Czech, or, probably, Slovakian Harry Potter site. Being Russian, I understood almost all without any translation, but I have some questions, and maybe Czechs on the group can help me. First, the surnames of the founders were translated, and I wonder what the translations actually mean, I didn't understand THEM. Hufflepuff was Mrzimor, Gryffindor Nebelvir, Ravenclaw Havraspar and Slytherin Zmijosel. Second, the last names of the female founders had a special appearance - Helga FROM Hufflepuff and Rowena FROM Ravenclaw. Is this the form that the names of all noble ladies have in Czech? I've seen this very form in some bad translated Czech guidebooks.
Maria.
