Eh? I always thought that 'Nimbus' was a reference to a sort of clous. The 
Something Nimbus, a storm cloud, I think. Since it sounds Latin, I suspect 
it may well have been some sort of [lesser] god of clouds in the Roman 
panthenon, and it'd make sense to JKR to name a broomstick after him.

Sofie,
delurking with her 2 cents.
