In the section Eytmology on the Harry Potter wiki characters, what is the website that the names come from? Just wondering.... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mariamoocow (talkcontribs) 23:01, 8 May 2009.

Do you mean the etymologies? At Behind the Name, or, if you're looking for surnames at Behind the Name - Surnames. -- Seth Cooper Moon (Owl Post) 22:18, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Speaking of which...they should all really be sourced. -- DarkJedi613 (Talk) 03:29, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
Other websites used to source etymological information include Wikipedia, the Online Etymology Dictionary, the Internet Surname Database, and Ancestry.com. Starstuff (Owl me!) 08:08, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
