Me:
Voldemort
Vol(e)-de-mort
'Vole' (burrowing rodent) + 'de/du' ('of' (Sp/Fr) + 'mort' ('death', Fr)
Voldemort == "Rodent of Death"

Dolores Umbridge
'Dolores' == sorrows, troubles
'Umbridge' == 'umbrage':  shadow;  vague indication;  hints or suspicions;  offense 
taken against insults real or imagined.

Hogwarts / wart-hogs

Dad-Eye (who loves to play word games)
