I know that Remus Lupin from Harry Potter got the first name Remus from the founders of Rome, Romulus and Remus and his last name is Latin or something meaning wolf. and that probably comes from the fact that Romulus and Remus were raised by a she-wolf as children.

Do you mean Queen Mary I of England? (she did exist)\n\n"Mary I acquired the epithet during the reign of her successor Elizabeth on account of the perceived ferocity of her religious persecutions."\n\nOr the ghost/witch folklore?\n\nThe folkloric character is a ghost or witch said to stalk children who summon her; other very similar tales use different names. Several other fictional characters are also called Bloody Mary.

The origin of the term is disputed. One theory customarily held by persons not from New England claims that it originated from the Dutch in old New Amsterdam (today known as New York City) in the Mid-Atlantic States. It then was adopted by the British as a pejorative for (Northern) colonists. The origin might have been the phrase Jan Kees ("John Cornelius") (two very common Dutch names), which the English-speaking people picked up as "yankees", a word they used to refer to the Dutch.

How about Harry Emerald and Rory Potter? You can't compare them because they are both so different. What were you thinking when you asked this question? Interesting question though!

from what I've read on wikipedia and other sources, timothy hunter (books of magic) was created BEFORE harry potter, however both Neil Gaiman and J.K. Rowling could have gotten similar inspiration since they are both from the same country. or as wikipedia and the authors respective sites say "...any similarities between the two are largely superficial and most likely reflect the fact that both draw on common archetypes..." (kinda how some american shows/movies play on the token ethnic guy).\n\nthere is also the fact that while they both look the same, the trials and tribulations the characters face are VERY different.

R.A.B.: It's not exactly fair of her to sic a new character on us this late in the game when it comes to something this critical, is it? But here's what we know: it has to be someone Voldemort would recognize by those initials. He has to refer to Voldemort as the Dark Lord, have a motive for screwing him over with the Horcrux switcheroo and possess the skills to pull it off. Regulus Black's initials match, but then we'd have to bank on Sirius being wrong about how he was a two-bit good-for-nothing who chickened out. \nIf it is Regulus, then the Black family connection and the search for lost items of dark power may lead Harry back to Grimmauld Place. And given how his inheritance of the house isn't an angle that plays out in this book, I fully expect to see it in the next one.
