Snuffles is not an uncommon name for a dog, especially a big, 
friendly, lovable dog.  I don't know if Sirius has this description 
when he is transformed though.  We do know when he was hiding in the 
mountain cave in GoF, he did describe himself (Snuffles) as a lovable 
stray.  As far as the Lupin/Sirius thing, I too find myself naturally 
calling them Lupin and Sirius.  I have on numerous occassions, forced 
myself to refer to Lupin as Remus, because in the same post I had 
typed Sirius and wanted to treat them "equal".

Lynnette, who thinks Snape IS a good guy, even if he is NOT a nice
guy!
