Very well observed, CM!

I thought those who are against Voldemort say "You know who", unless 
they´re especially brave (or ignorant, as Harry in book 1). I think 
we´ve heard only Dumbledore, Harry and Sirius calling him by his name 
so far. Lupin too, maybe, but I can´t check that right now. I find it 
strange that Prof. McGonagall doesn´t.

Voldemort´s supporters call him "he who must not be named" (Pettigrew 
definately does), again except for the braver ones. I think they refer 
to him as the Dark Lord (I think Barty jr and Malfoy do). 

But that doesn´t quite go with the explanation LV (no, I won´t reveal 
to you right now which side I´m on!) gives for his name in CoS. He 
says he took on the name Lord Voldemort as a secret name his closest 
friends used to call him at Hogwarts (I´d be greatful if someone 
could check that!). So why doesn´t anyone now use it?

What do you think Dumbledore would call him if they came face to face?

In his habit of using literally everybody´s first name (which I find 
very nice, if slightly American), would he make it "Tom" again?
