Calling all Harry Potter lovers, these adorable baby names pay homage to the most loved ‘boy who lived’ and all that comes with the magical world of Hogwarts.
As Harry Potter is now at an end (cue the tears), naming your baby something like Luna, Arabella or even George enables you to keep the magic alive in your life.
Not a die hard Potter fan? Alas, these names are classic, proper and down right adorable!
Here are 38 baby names inspired by J.K. Rowling’s loveable Harry Potter characters.
41 Harry Potter inspired baby names
1. Harry
Of course number 1 on the list is the lead character of the story. Harry is a strong yet sweet name just as his character portrays.
2. Hermione
Hailing as Harry’s bright best friend, this girls name is classic and pretty and not to mention Emma Watson played Hermione which makes this name even more of a favourite.
3. Ronald
Always good for a laugh, the third part of the trio of Harry and Hermione, Ronald can be shortened to Ron too!
4. Ginny
As the sweet and innocent young sister of Ron, Ginny is a very cute girls name.
5. Draco
Although not the nicest of characters, Draco as a boys name is strong and powerful. Spoiler: he turns out to be not so nasty in the end!

As Harry’s ‘lunatic’ uncle, Sirius is a pretty cool boys name.
7. Luna
Like the moon, this name shines as bright as the eclectic character.
8. Fred
A classic, need we say more?

A leader of a name, Albus is one of 3 names the principal of Hogwarts claims.

Were you a secret Professor McGonagall fan? Minerva is her first name, and a cool one at that (she can transform into a cat, no big deal).

A good guy at heart, Serverus is a unique name for your little one.

The secret Heroine of the Harry Potter story, Neville is an extremely cute name at that.

Swoon! The passing of Cedric Digory will remain one of the saddest scenes in the Harry Potter films, but his name lives on.
22. Cho
Short and sweet! And Harry’s first kiss too.

With an identical twin sister called Padma, if you love a good P name, these are for you!

Shorten to Bella if you prefer!
27. Dolores
A sweet name and if you’re just as much as a fan of the TV series ‘Westworld’ this name represents a strong woman!
