So, way back when, when PoA was new, and you didn't yet know his
name was Remus or that he had a furry problem,  did you see
Professor Lupin in the same way that you might have seen Professor
Flowers or Profesor Rose? (Both of those are real names.) It just
seems to me that if you know it's a flower, the name Lupin makes him
seem so much more gentle. Never mind it also sounds like looping, or
makes one think: Lupine.

I do not know about lupins, but when we first met him on the train, I KNEW right away, before it was revealed tha he was a werewolf. 
I guess it is all the stories I heard growing up about the loup garou.
