Oct 10, 2018 · Sirius and Regulus Black. Harry’s godfather Sirius was – like many members of his family – named after a star. The Sirius star is in fact the brightest in the night sky and is situated in the constellation known as ‘Canis major' (The Greater Dog).

The only constellation in the mix, Draco is a big ol’ dragon that, because our idea of what a dragon might look like has changed and is largely open to interpretation, also kind of looks like a big ol’ snake.

Rubeus may come from the Latin ‘Rubeo’, which means ‘I am red or ruddy.’. And, if you notice in the books, this is exactly what happens when the Professor partakes in a ...
