The list holds the Wizarding World's names: the four houses Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin, along with Dumbledore, Hermione, Voldemort, Hagrid and Quidditch. Free to print as a PDF, or play it online.

Each house is named after its founder, which is why the names read like surnames rather than mottoes: Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin. Rowling has said she worked through several pages of Q-words before settling on Quidditch, and that the four house names were first written down on an airline sick bag.

Two of the names are jokes at a distance. Voldemort reads in French as flight of death. And McGonagall borrows from William McGonagall, a Victorian Scot widely held to be the worst poet ever to write in English, which is an odd person to name the most formidable teacher in the school after.
