I figure that if she couldn't bother to tell us years ago (and especially when the books were being made into movies), then I doubt that I will bother to change the way I say it.

I'm sorta wondering why this wasn't important to her fifteen years ago, but is now... :confusion-seeingstars:

Especially since there was such a big stink made about how to pronounce; Hermione. :think:

I have many things I re-name as I read. So, for me it ends in "t", except when he's Moldyshorts, or Voldie, or Voldie-poo, etc.

Too bad about how she wanted it.
(Though I have a lot of sympathy for her that !@#$%^& WB took a lot of her stuff and changed it whether she wanted it that way or not.)

Besides... we dithered over how to say "Accio" until movie 4, so if the movies can define how to say that, the movies can define Mr. Mort's name.

Yup - if she wouldn't speak up when they made the movies, tough. We all know she had a lot of say and input over her precious characters. Voldemort (with the "t" not silent) it shall be.

I hope the new site is compatible with the browser I use.
The old site wouldn't work right for me.
