The Harry Potter series of books and films never fail to captivate young audiences. Many of us grew up enjoying the books and eventually the movies. The characters in the wizarding world have such unique and colorful names. Severus Snape, for instance, was created by a stroke of genius. We decided to round up some of the very best names from the Harry Potter series to share with you as potential baby names.
These appellations are not going to appeal to all but the unique options they present are hard for many fans of Potter to pass by. We’re hoping names like Myrtle and Minerva stage a comeback after years of disuse. Further, we want foreign names like the French name, Fleur, to finally land on some American birth certificates. Discover all the best Harry Potter names below with insights into their popularity and what each name means. Many will surprise you!
Harry

The boy who loved! Harry is an English diminutive form of Henry, meaning “estate ruler.” The name is currently much more popular in the UK with it being the seventh most popular name for baby boys born today.
Hermione

Hermione is a name of Greek origin that is related to Hermes, meaning “messenger.” The name has gone virtually unused in the US but you will here it much more frequently in England and especially Germany today. Harry’s best friend and the most clever character from the books would be an unusual option for a baby girl today.
Ron
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-3-1200x705.jpg)
Ron is Harry’s sidekick. You might think Ron is just a short form of Ronald, but you would be wrong! Ron is a standalone Norse name that means “ruler.’s counsel” Ron was once a popular given name in the US but that. has not been the case for decades. It could be time for a comeback!
Albus
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-8-960x1200.jpg)
Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore sure has one heck of a name. Albus comes from Latin and means “white” and “bright.” Albus has never been a popular option in the US so it would be a rather colorful choice for a baby boy born today.
Severus
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-6-962x1200.jpg)
You may think that a name that sounds this severe was made up by Rowling but Severus is an established name of Latin origin that indeed means “stern.” Although Snape wore it well, it is a lot of name for a baby boy to pull off today.
Minerva
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-7-960x1200.jpg)
Minerva names the Roman goddess of wisdom which gives this Latin name the meaning, “intellect.” Minerva McGonagall is a Witch and Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts. The name was once a popular choice for baby girls in the US but that has not been the case since the 1970s. We think it’s charming but we understand if new parents find it to sound dated.
Rubeus
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-5.jpg)
Chances are you know him as Hagrid but the character’s first name is Rubeus. Pronounced ROO-bee-us, this appellation will likely throw many Americans. The name is of Latin origin and means “of the bramble bush,” according to Nameberry.
Draco
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-10.jpg)
Harry’s nemesis and antagonist throughout the Harry Potter series, Draco Malfoy sure has a dramatic name. Draco is a rare Greek name that comes from Latin (usually it’s the other way around). The name means “dragon.” Malfoy might have doomed any potential for this name to take hold. It’s extremely rare in the US today.
Neville
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-12-960x1200.jpg)
Neville Longbottom is timid and shy at the start of the Harry Potter series but he undergoes a transformation into a strong-willed character. Neville is a name of French origin that means “new town.” Despite the name belonging to a British Prime Minister, it is not popular in the UK or the US. We have a soft spot for this dusty name and we think more parents should give it a shot.
Sirius
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-14.jpg)
As with Severus, Sirius feels like a name for someone who lacks a sense of humor. Sirius is not some random spelling of serious, however. Sirius is a Latin name from Greek that means “burning.” This name has never and likely will never be a popular choice for a baby boy born in the US or UK.
Cho
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-4-1200x1200.jpg)
Cho Chang is a Seeker for the Ravenclaw Quidditch team. Cho is a name of Japanese origin that means “butterfly.” While well-used in Japan the name remains rare in the US and UK. We think it’s a delightful option for a baby girl.
Luna
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-13-960x1200.jpg)
We have Harry Potter’s friend, Luna Lovegood to thank for the meteoric rise of the name Luna in the US and UK. It was the 11th most popular name for girls in the most recent baby name data in the US. The name belonged to the Roman goddess of the moon and she was the personification of the celestial body. Luna originated in Latin and means “moon.”
Ginny
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-11-960x1200.jpg)
A classic nickname for Virginia, Ginny is one of the Weasley clan in the Harry Potter books and movies. Ginny was a mildly popular given name in the US from the 1940s to the 1980s. It’s been forty years since it was popular.
Argus
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-156.jpg)
A name belonging to a grumpy caretaker at Hogwarts, Argus is a rare name in the US and UK. It is of Greek origin and means “watchful guardian.” We’re not sure this appellation will ever take off but it could be a great alternative to Angus.
Ariana
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Screenshot-2022-11-23-at-3.10.23-PM-918x1200.jpg)
Albus Dumbledore’s sister was given a sweet name in Ariana. Ariana is a top-100 name for girls in the US today. It is an Italian form of Ariadne which comes from Greek and means “most holy.”
Lucius
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-16-1200x1200.jpeg)
Lucius comes from Latin and means “light” which is ironic given it is the name given to Draco’s father who is a follower of Voldemort. Lucius is a fantastic name so don’t let the Harry Potter books scare you away from it. It was once a popular choice but it fell from fashion in the 1960s and has not returned to favor.
Helga
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-17.jpg)
Helga is a name belonging to a founding member of Hogwarts. Helga is a popular name across Europe today but it has not been used in the US with regularity for over 100 years! It’s a Scandinavian name that means “holy” and “blessed.”
Cedric
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-9-1200x1200.jpg)
One of the true greats from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Cedric Diggory was also given a fabulous name. Cedric is a name of Celtic origin that means “boundary.” Cedric is a top-1000 name for baby boys born in the US today. There’s so much to love!
Emmeline
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-18.jpg)
Emmeline Vance was a witch in the Harry Potter series, a member of the order of the phoenix. Emmeline is a beautiful name of Old French and German origin that means “work.” It is likely related to Amelia. Emmeline is a top-1000 name for baby girls today and it only recently made it on the charts in 2014.
Arthur
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-19.jpg)
Arthur Weasley was given such a stately name. Arthur is of Celtic origin and means “bear.” The name has been popular in the US since records begin for baby names in 1880. This name is popular across the UK and Europe more broadly.
Myrtle
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-20.jpg)
A name belonging to a ghost of Hogwarts, Myrtle has a vintage, grandma-name charm. The appellation was last popular in the 1960s. The name originated in Greek as a name for a shrub with pink or white aromatic berries.
Charles
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-21.jpg)
Another one of the Weasley brothers, Charles was given an evergreen name. Charles is of French origin and means “free man.” A name belonging to the King of England, the name is of course, popular across the UK. But, it also is one of the most popular names for boys in the US, never dropping out of the top 100 for as long as records go back.
Fleur
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-22.jpg)
In the Harry Potter stories, Fleur is a French student who competes in the Triwizard Tournament. Fleur is indeed a French name, meaning “flower.” The name has never been popular in the US. Currently, it’s a red-hot baby name in Belgium and the Netherlands. We think it has so much potential!
Pomona
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-23.jpg)
Professor Sprout’s first name is Pomona. Pomona is a Roman goddess of plenty and fruit trees, hence the name’s Latin root means “apple.” If the name Apple has never sat right with you, try this understated name instead.
James
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names Harry Potter Baby Names](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harry-potter-baby-names-24.jpg)
A name belonging to Harry Potter’s heroic father, James is an English name from the same Hebrew root that brings us Jacob. The appellation means “supplanter.” James is even more popular than Charles in the US, never dropping from the top 20 most popular baby names for boys. The name is popular across the English-speaking world but can be found in countries across Europe.

The wraithlike Dementor definitely haunts us. We think this is the definition of nightmare fuel. If you’re interested in moodier Harry Potter tattoos, something like this could be the right move for you.
The Harry

This exquisite tattoo looks just like Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter. The vivid, saturated, romantic colors are a dramatic delight. We love that the mark on Harry’s forehead is featured here.
The Electric Harry

Here’s another one of the Harry Potter tattoos that finds a portrait of Daniel Radcliffe as the wizard. Take a look at the very electric, blue mark on Harry’s head. That’s some excellent artistic license.
The Hedwig
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-18-1200x1200.jpg)
Hagrid’s gift of Hedwig to Harry is one of the most memorable parts of Harry’s story. This tattoo design features the snowy owl dripping with color. Again, it’s another watercolor design that works well and it is one of our favorite Harry Potter tattoos on the list.
The Flying Car
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-19-1200x1200.jpg)
Good old Arthur Weasley was good for something. This flying car tattoo has a touch of photorealism and plenty of style. This is one of the most lively and fantastic Harry Potter tattoos.
The Gryffindor
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Harry-Potter-tattoos-20-960x1200.jpg)
Bravery and courage are defining qualities of a member of House Gryffindor. This is one of the stunning Harry Potter tattoos that reads like a sigil. Black and grey ink has its virtues!
The Patronus Part II
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-21.jpg)
Remus Lupin taught Harry well and the result was this magical Patronus. Done in a watercolor style this tattoo captures the special moment when 13-year-old Harry pulled it off!
The Flying Keys
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-22-960x1200.jpg)
The Flying Keys are such a playful and fun aspect of the Harry Potter world. We love the hatching and shading on this tattoo. With the movement lines, it looks like this tattoo could take flight at any moment.
The Specs and Scar
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/jarry-potter-tattoos-23-960x1200.jpg)
Harry Potter is such a huge character and social touchstone that a pair of circles and a zigzag are all you need to symbolize him. This super sweet tattoo is a great way to show some HP love without going over-the-top. Simplicity is bliss!
The Marauder’s Map
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-25-960x1200.jpg)
This reincarnation of The Mauraders Map that details all the secrets of Hogwarts is such a fun idea among these Harry Potter tattoos. This fan has an invaluable piece of intel on her arm should she ever be transported there.
The Baby Harry
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-26-1200x1200.jpg)
How cute is this cartoon baby Harry? Again, the watercolor effect is so playful here. We also love the babyface. It’s one of the cutest Harry Potter tattoos on the list.
The Deathly Hallows Pt. 2
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-27.jpg)
The Deathly Hallows symbol comes from three Harry Potter artifacts: the Elder Wand, the Resurrection Stone and the Cloak of Invisibility. We love this interpretation created by black and grey flowers.
The Ravenclaw
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-28-960x1200.jpg)
Ravenclaws are characterized by wit, learning, and wisdom. This beautiful Ravenclaw emblem makes for fine Harry Potter tattoos. The style of the design borders on traditional without losing the Harry Potter feel.
The Elder Wand
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-29.jpg)
We liked it more when it belonged to Dumbledore! This wand tattoo is ready to cast a spell. We love the craggy design that gives it an almost textured look. It’s one of the more subtle Harry Potter tattoos.
The Tale of Three Brothers
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-30.jpg)
This inspired design combines The Deathly Hallows with The Tale of the Three Brothers. Done in silhouette, it’s a haunting, beautiful design.
The Snape
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-31-1200x1200.jpg)
The tattoo artist who is working on this tattoo shared her work in progress because she was so pleased about how it was coming together. We can’t wait to see the end result! But the likeness of Alan Rickman as Severus Snape is uncanny.
The Sword of Gryffindor
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-32-960x1200.jpg)
This is the second time The Sword of Gryffindor has made an appearance on the list. This glamorous tattoo really pays close attention to the details. The handle of the sword alone would make a great tattoo! The added floral design compliments the overall design well. Well done!
The Hogwarts Express
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-33-1200x1200.jpg)
This tattoo of Hogwarts Express looks like a study in charcoal. The train has so much detail and highlighting, while Hogwarts in the background seems to fade. It’s one of the most remarkable Harry Potter tattoos to make the list.
The Hermione Cat
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-34-965x1200.jpg)
This tattoo is ridiculous and somehow perfect. Hermione Granger’s Patronus is an otter. We think if she got a look at this tattoo, that could change. This whimsical tattoo is one of the best Harry Potter tattoos on the list.
The Dobby
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/harry-potter-tattoos-35.jpg)
Dobby has no master! The tattoo artist has managed to capture the sadness in Dobby’s eyes and for that, we give respect. We love the way the character has been framed in a design that includes a snitch and flowers.
The Hogwarts Pt. 2
![25 Harry Potter Baby Names for Your Little Wizard or Witch | These Harry Potter-inspired baby names for girls and boys are simply magical. Baby Names 50 Harry Potter Tattoos](https://mamasuncut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/unnamed-file.jpg)
This is hands-down the most impressive Hogwarts tattoo we’ve ever seen. How did the artist get so much detail into such a small tattoo? The frame that contains the scene is impossibly complicated itself. It gives you the feeling like you’re looking into another world.
Harry Potter became a pop culture phenomenon because it offered kids an escape to a world that felt both familiar and completely unknown. The books are dark and even broody at times. Many young people connected with the stories of friendship, betrayal, adversity, and above all else, magic. Fandom for the Harry Potter universe has been strong for years. We expect it to last as long as these Harry Potter tattoos. Forever.
