This is a repost. The last post got lost in this great big ocean and 
was posted under a different heading. The questions contain spoilers 
so please don't read any further if you have not finished reading the 
book as yet.



Here are some questions that have been bothering me:-

1) Why is the Order of the Phoenix known as the Order of 
the "Phoenix" ? Unless I have missed something while reading the 
book, JKR does not give any specific reasons as to why the Order is 
named as it it. She merely describes it as a secrect group formed to 
fight LV and the DEs.

2) Does anyone else see the connection between Harry's wand and the 
Prophecy ? Ollivander, in PS/SS says that its the wand that chooses 
its owner. According to the prophecy, either Neville or Harry could 
have been the chosen ones but LV chose Harry. The core of both 
Harry's wand and LV's wand have the feathers given from the same 
Phoenix. LV chose Harry and the wand(brother to LV's wand) chose 
Harry. Is this a possibility ?
