** Voldemort also has plenty of variations on his name - Voldy, Voldypants, Moldywarts, Voldyshorts - to the point where Peeves actually uses "Voldy" in the last book.
** The quill that Umbridge made Harry write with in detention in ''Order of the Phoenix'' lacks an official name (because it was a unique creation of Umbridge's), but is almost universally referred to as a "blood quill".

* [[Jossed]]: Blaise Zabini, first named in [[Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone|the first book]] and a popular [[OC Stand-In]], gets his first proper introduction in [[Harry Potter/Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince|the sixth]]. Fans who had written Blaise as white and/or female were outraged that he turned out to be a black male.
** A lot of fanfics ended up being outdated when it turned out Ginny was not a shorthand for "Virginia" but "Ginevra". Which could have been seen coming, considering that Ginevra is a British name (and an old one at that, as is popular among wizards) while Virginia is mostly an American one besides people like [[Virginia Woolf]].
