Eddie:
Prophetic author?  :-D

Actually, lots of the names are puns: Professor Vector (a math term)
teach arithmancy, Professor Sprout (a vegetable) teaches herbology,
Peeves makes people peevish, etc.

Too bad Lupin's name ruined the surprise, though.  I think that pun
was a little too integral to the plot.  The "Sectumsempra" hex is also
guessable if you know enough Latin, but it's a long time between when
it is introduced and when it is used with suprising (to Harry) results.
