Why do people get so angry with Cho Chang when all wizards have funny sounding names like Horace Slughorn, Bellatrix Lestrange or Neville Longbottom?

The only ones with normal surnames are muggle borns/half bloods. Even the Potters were taken out of the pureblood list because their surname was common among muggles.

The complaint is it's two surnames how could she get something like that wrong OMG so racist etc. As if surnames as first names hasn't been a trend for girls, and especially female characters, for decades.

Yeah, and that Cho is a Korean surname while Chang is Chinese. Whatever, there are no Bongs named Albus Dumbledore neither

Some Asian tumblrina actually whined about this at the time, and leftists were capable of disagreeing with someone criticising the only books they'd ever read back then, even on idpol grounds.

In all honesty I think Rowling's naming is one of her strongest traits in HP. One look at a characters name and you almost instantly grasp what their personality is and what role they're supposed to play

And yeah you get your Cho Chang or Parvati Patil (or Seamus Finnegan lol) but it doesn't really bother me :marseyshrug: maybe I'm just a :marseychud:

Maybe it's different across the pond, but Dean Thomas sounds like a WASP, not a Kang.

Her names are generally pretty good though. I didn't think about it, but you're right they fit the characters really well.
