Dru asked this question about
Steppenwolf:
I'm about halfway through, and can't help but notice the main characters are "Harry and Hermine". Seems I've heard something AWFULLY close to those two in a more popular YA novel recently....has JKR ever admitted to taking the names from Steppenwolf?

She said that she named her character Hermione because of a character from a Shakespeare play.
