It seems kind of silly to me for JKR to waste space on that little
piece of paper indicating if they were a boy or girl. You probably
could tell that from the name, methinks.

Mind you, I have no idea what they ARE for and it does seem to follow
the pattern, except with Longbottom. Does this me Neville is a
transvestite? Not a good thought.

Maybe the circles and squares have to do with some trait we haven't
seem example of yet in the books?
