Forgive me if this has already been covered, but one thing about JKR
that caught my attention is her word play. You guys know what I mean,
Erised is desire backwords and Diagon Alley is obviously derived from
diagonally. Well, I tried to find some more "hidden words" if you will
and came up with absolute crap. My best attempt was turning Remus Lupin
into muun perils. Don't laugh, I know it's a real shot in the dark. How
bout turning Pettigrew into Pet it grew. I told you the Lupin thing was
my best shot. I'm sure that there are some good ones that I am overlooking
so help me out here.
