Mike:

Someone once pointed out that all of the Weasley men are named for English kings, starting with the most famous though maybe mythical Arthur. And Ginny *could* have been a form of Arthur's bride, Guinevere, though Nikkalmati is correct on her real first name. Only Molly doesn't fit in this category, but she's a Weasley by marriage, not by birth.
