Examples of Name-Based Mockery in Harry Potter Fanfics

CONTRIBUTING:

  • Un-cited examples are grandfathered in and new ones are only accepted from people I trust.
  • Contributions of citation links for existing entries or new entries with citation links are welcome from anyone (but I can't guarantee GitHub will send me a notification, so it may take time for me to notice and respond)
  • Ideally, I'd like to cite the sources where I saw the grandfathered-in entries so I may keep them in the TODO list if a citation is given that points to a story I haven't read.
  • Note that, when the chapter numbers given by the author and the site disagree, the author's numbering scheme is used in the titles for citations.

Did… did he just call the Dark Lord 'Moldy Shorts'?

"You seem surprised," rang out a third voice that could only belong to the yellow thief. "We have plenty of other things to call him. Voldemonkey."

"The Dork Lord."

"VD-mort."

"Snake-face, always a classic."

"The Noseless One."

"He-Who-Must-Not-Sunbathe."

A pause, then, "Eh, too long, Blue."

"Sorry, Yellow. How about… You-No-Clue?"

"Better. The Dark Idiot."

"…I got nothing."
