[HPforGrownups] Names/Ginny

No: HPFGUIDX 37320

my question is then are the men in the house named for the Authorian peroid? Then the name Molly which seems to fit either Mary or Margert.  I want to point out that both names have royal people Queen(princess) Margret /and/or/ Mary.  If you think of it in that way the family of names make some sort of sense.  

I hope it makes some sort of sense.....
