That was actually part of what I was saying when I wrote out what the names appeared to be on the second page, if we presume that the last one on the first page IS a MacDougal (or a McDougal, whichever) then there are FIVE people with M surnames:
  1.. The one on the bottom of the first page (...Dougal, Isabel)
  2.. Mac......(Dougal, Morag?)
  3.. Mac.....(Millon, Ernie?)
  4.. Mal(foy, Draco)
  5.. Moon.
This means that Morag and Ernie can still fit in even if Isabel IS another character with the same (or slightly different -Mc-) surname as Morag.

That would point to me that rather than Isabel being changed to Morag, that either Isabel no longer exists fullstop (rather than her name begin changed to Morag) or else there is yet ANOTHER character with a "Mac" surname (Isabel being the unchanged Morag, Ernie being next and then another unknown character).

As I put in the other post the list appears to be:
Abbott, Hannah.
Bones, Susan.
Boot, Trevor. 
Brocklehurst, Mandy.
Brown, Lavender.
Bulstrode, Millicent.
Corner, Michael.
Cornfoot, Stephen.
Crabbe, Vincent.
Davis, Tracy.
Entwhistle, Kevin.
Finch-Fletchley, Justin.
Finnigan, Seamus.
Goldstein, Anthony.
Goyle, Gregory.
Granger, Hermione
Greingrass, Queenie.
Hopkins, Wayne.
Jones, Megan.
Li, Su.
Longbottom, Neville.

THE M NAMES:
???Dougal, Isabel (the original name appears to have been Katrina) Mac(Dougal, Morag)?
Mac(Millan, Ernie)? (unless JK really didn't remember to change "Isabel" to "Morag" in the book, in which case Morag should be Isabel and the one above is Ernie, leaving this one unknown)
Mal(foy, Draco).
Moo(n).

Nott.
Park(inson).
Patel (Padma).
Patel (Parvati).
Perks (Sally-Ann).
Potter (Harry).
?ran (Muridae could be right in saying that this is Granger and it then got moved to it's proper place).
Rive (?).
Rope(? as the E joins on to another letter).
Runc (Possibley Runcorn).
Smith.
Spink(s...it is unclear if this is the full name, the s is of 1/2 off the page).
Thom(as, Dean).
Turpi(n, Lisa).
Weasl(ey, Ronald/Ron).
Zabini, (Blaise).

HOLLYDAZE!!!
