>>What if JKR put a code into her names to help us distinguish whether
the characters were good or evil.
The key to the secret code is that the name that distinguishes a
character from all the other characters must have only three vowels.<<

Here is my response to them:

a few mistakes.
1) Bill. It's possible his GIVEN name is William. That gives him 3.

2) Charlie with 3. Could be Charles with 2. NOT EVIL.
3) Fred could Frederick with 3 or Fredrick with 2. Evil? Not Evil? He
  	can't decide hehe
4) George is just plain screwed. Sorry George. :)
5) Ginny, We KNOW Ginny is not her given name. Virginia is her given
name. That's 4. She's EVIL!<<

I write:
Your points are of course possible, but I was going with what we know
in the canon.  If it is revealed that the names we know the Weasleys
by are in fact nicknames, then, well, I will be happy to rewrite my
assumptions.  :)

Why did you stop with the above listed Weasleys though?

Percy could be named Percival and thus EVIL.

Seems Molly and Arthur are safe since I cannot think of any other
names for them without making new ones for them.

I don't know if 4 vowel names are evil, so Ginny may be safe.  There
is just not enough evidence to support that claim. Very few
distinguishing names in Potterland have four vowels.  But hey, if you
are "convinced"  she is evil then we can put in the rules that three
or more vowels in the name denotes evil status.  Kind of fun to make
up the rules of insane codes.

>>As a loyal Draco Malfoy fangirl, I've always considered Draco to be
in the same boat as Snape. Like Snape, Draco does what is best for
him... whether that be being evil, or doing something good .... but
it has to be for HIS OWN benefit.<<

Me:
Hmmm, may be there is a code for 2 vowel names or rather for
characters that have two consonants that begin thier first name.
Oooo, maybe those that have two consonants in thier distiguishing name
are carefully walking a line between good and evil and have a habit
for survival.  Hmmm, that works for Draco and Snape....and Black
(definately looking out for himself)... Charlie (again??)... Skeeter
(Ooo, she works)  I see a new theory emerging....


Then Frye wrote:
>>Very interesting theory. Would you mind if I place that on my
website with giving you proper credit? <<

Me:
Sure I have no problem with that.  As long as you do say that it is
not based on ANY facts from JKR.  Just sheer boredom.  ;)
