Pam:
I see the whole animagus gang as having been close friends, with 
some closer than others and definitely agree with the whole hero-
worship thing between Sirius-James & Peter-James.

But no one in this whole thread has mentioned Prof. Grubbly-Plank, 
who is (imo) a fine candidate for a lesbian character--not just 
because she reminds me of Jane Hathaway, but also due to the 
hyphenated name, which friends of mine who are in long-term gay 
relationships often do.  However, I also concede that there are many 
straight couples with hyphenated names, as well as Brit names of 
families who wed but want both families represented, and the 
hyphenation continues down generations.
