In the Harry Potter books, I've found the following repeated names:
Cassandra - Prof. Trelawney's great-great-grandmother (Cassandra
Trelawney); Auther of Unfogging the Future (Cassandra Vablatsky)
Evans - Harry's mother's maiden name (Lily Evans); a neighbor of the
Dursley familyt (Mark Evans); already been discussed on the list.
Tom - In the Riddle family (both Voldemort and his father); The in-
keeper at the Leaky Cauldrin (no last name)
William - Bill Weasley is Ron's big brother; Willie Wudsherkins is
responsible for the regurgitating toiletts. Both first names are
nicknames for William.
Zacharias - A Hufflepuff student in the DA (Zacharias Smith); Someone
who wrote a discription of Quiddich in 1938 (Zacharias Mumps)
I wonder if there is any connection between these different people
with the same name. Any ideas?
