k so this isn't about DH but did anyone else notice that in the Half Blood Prince after Ron gets poisoned, and Harry goes to talk to Slughorn for the memory afterwards, Slughorn calls him Rupert when they were talking about him?

i thought that was Slughorn being dim and having a poor memory, but I never really thought much more about it. I bet Mr Grint felt rather pleased with himself.

Was it that funny?

It was only meant to be a statement.

It looks alike, they both start with R.

Speaking of names, kinda, I was looking up names from stars and mythology and stuff, and I found Merope listed, and in Greek mythology, Merope was a godess who married a mortal. I thought that was really snazzy.

And they've got loads of stuff, like Bellatrix means 'warrioress' and Regulus means 'prince' or 'heart of the lion'.

I mean, I knew all the names come from somewhere, but I thought it was really cool to learn what was behind them and stuff.

It was just Slughorn being an ass and not remembering Ron's name.

Yeah exactly. Slughorn didn't care about anyone other than himself, as shown by the way he'd get close to those who were talented/well connected.

He 'cared' for Harry, Ginny, even (and especially) Tom Riddle for various reasons so took the time to remember their names. Ron was just another Weasley to him, and he didn't excel at potions or anything else so Slughorn couldn't be bothered to remember his name.


Something that I'm wondering about, though, is when Voldemort returns to Hogwarts for that last battle, would he have recognised Slughorn? Why didn't he insult, taunt or even acknowlege the fat bastard?
