Anyway if Brown, Lavender has a G beside her name, Bulstrode,

*Ravenclaw* boyfriend, have an H beside his name?
Me:
I think the real mistake with the school list is the magically
disappearing Sally-Anne Perks. Since Michael was never mentioned in
canon before OoP, it was easy to change his house to Ravenclaw. Sally-
Anne, however, IS mentioned in canon during the Sorting in SS. So
technically she should have been called before Harry when he's taking
his O.W.L.s. Very picky, yes, but a mistake nevertheless. The strange
thing is I can see "Perks" is on that school list picture before
Harry. Maybe J.K. revised the list and took Sally-Anne out but forgot
she was already mentioned in canon.
