Here's a weird one I just noticed.

Dudley's friend in the first book, the "rat-faced boy" (JKR's description)
who holds people's arms behind their back while Dudely hits them and
who goes to the zoo with the Dursleys, is Piers Polkiss.

Then in book three we get Peter Pettigrew who can TURN into a rat.

I wonder if PP will be as important a combination is Harry Potter's life,
but for reasons of signifying unpleasant people, as LL is for Superman's
life, where all his most signifcant romantic women have those initials?
