** A number of Snapefics have him referring to or thinking of his Slytherin students as his "little snakes", prompting a [[Heh Heh, You Said "X"]] response from [http://szaleniec1000.livejournal.com/tag/little%20snakes many readers]. |

** Since Hermione's parents' names are never mentioned, fanfic writers have instead invented their own. "Roger and Helen" crop up frequently; "[[Daniel Radcliffe|Dan]] and [[Emma Watson|Emma]]" go in and out of fashion, probably because everyone loves or hates how cringe-inducingly meta it is. (And at least one author [[Gender Flip]]ped it to "Emmett and Danielle".) Then there was a wave of "Rose and Hugo" ('cause Hermione is just as creative as Harry is) and even a bit of "Wendell and Monica" (Hermione's probably clever enough not to give her parents' their real names as false names). |

** Some of the very minor student character have been used as [[OC Stand-In]]s enough to develop fanon personalities. Daphne Greengrass is an [[Ice Queen]], but free from pure-blood prejudice and at least slightly more sympathetic than Pansy. Tracey Davis is Daphne's best friend and is more easygoing. Padma Patil is the [[Sibling Yin-Yang|opposite of Parvati]] and possibly the second brightest student of her year after Hermione. Blaise Zabini is a suave player type. Theodore Nott is a [[Jerkass]] and, when the other Slytherins are portrayed more positively, he will be the [[The Complainer Is Always Wrong|voice of pure-blood prejudice]]. |

*** Since the only things known about Blaise before ''Half Blood Prince'' were his name and that he was in Slytherin (from the sorting ceremony in ''Philosopher's Stone''), many fans assumed he was a she -- and ''no one'' ever guessed he was black. Most Fem!Blaises were [[Raven Hair, Ivory Skin|porcelain-skinned beauties of obvious Italian heritage]]. |

*** Minor Slytherin character Theodore Nott is also usually portrayed in fanfic as a close friend of Draco, despite [[Word of God]] saying that he is a loner who doesn't feel the need to fit in with Draco and his cronies. |
