Eve and others,

No coincidence  at all. The depth to which Rowling took her series is mind
boggling once you research it. There were quite a few things I was aware of
when reading the series that I recognized from history or literature, but
when I took that class, I was astounded to learn just how deep HP is rooted
in historical and literary references. It goes so much deeper than the
names, than witchcraft, than magic. It's a comment on how intelligent
Rowling is, and the magnitude of this work is truly commendable. What seems
like recognizable references quickly become jus the surface of what she did.

And also, her neighbors could have been a part of that famous family.
;)  Seriously though, if you look in the Encyclopedia of Witchcraft, you
will find many names that also appear in the Harry Potter books.
Coincidence? I think not.
