The Name Game

Hi all,

Hats off to JKR!!! I know most of you must have stumbled across this, but she is great.

I was translating the names and came across:

Voldemort: Flight of (from???) Death 
Malfoy	: Evil Faith (Double cross??)
Dumbledore: Of Gild (cant make any sense of this.. but will work on it)
Nymphadora: Gilded Nymph (a minor nature goddess usually depicted as a beautiful maiden; "the ancient Greeks believed that nymphs inhabited forests and bodies of water")

I could not make anything out of Dumbledore
. And the definition of Nymphadora fits her character (playful, having magical quality).

Of course Flight from Death fits, as does evil faith (but I am assuming that he is playing his own game)

Any other inputs and brickbats???? If this is discussed before, any pointers???

Amey

P.S. A bit OT, I got a mention of Nicolas Flamel in a different book, around 1665. If needed, I will give the details. Tells me JKR has arrived in literary world. - A
