Re: A Student by any other name....
Hi there I have no idea... I liked the name Eudora Mandrake but it has nothing to do with my actual name. I discovered this name by signing up to HOL and if i would register to other forums I think I would just use Eudora again ! I LOVE the name Eudora! My husband and I both have first names that s...

Polaris was the first non-Slytherin person I connected to when I first joined HOL. I loved working with her as a HOLLERS Assistant...
