Something I've been pondering.

Given Dumbledore's feelings about the fear of a name increasing the
fear of the thing itself, and his feelings about always calling
Voldemort "Voldemort", I've always wondered why he would even go that
far?  I mean, why doesn't Dumbledore always refer to Voldemort as Tom
Riddle which, to me, signifies an even stronger weakening of his name.

Oh, and hi, I'm Catherine, a newbie to the group but a complete HP fan.
