Ben had given a lot of thought on what he was going to do for the most recent History of Magic homework. There was the option of adding some more artwork into his illuminated manuscripts or writing out an entry. Though while he wanted to edit his drawings a little and maybe animate them, he didn't have any more really free pages to do something entirely new so he felt what he would do wouldn't exactly count for what the professor wanted.

So that left him to do some writing and after looking over the list of topic options, decided to start at the very beginning. The sixth year picking up a new quill once he had settled a quiet work area in the reading nook. The boy dipping it in ink and began writing all about his names once he felt ready.

My full name is Benjamin Finnegan Atreyu. The Finnegan comes from my family connection to another the family that bore Seamus Finnegan explosions expert and classmate of Harry Potter. It was teased that this was why I had my less than stellar experiences in my potions lessons my first year at Hogwarts. Benjamin is mine and mine alone. As for how I feel about the name,

I do have several nicknames, two given to me by my...my best friend.
Benny had to pause there in memory of the fact that he and Adi were back on good terms. Not the best....but they were working on it. And it certainly felt good to be able to around him or think about him without pain and sadness. Pushing it momentarily away, the Gryffindor went back to finishing his entry.

The first is one I hated when it was first used, and that is Benny. Oh how I prefered Benjamin or even Ben, but nope, it was Benny. Though now it has grown on me over the years. So Benny I am. Then there is Dragon, which stemmed from a Potions lesson. We were brewing fire breathing potion and Adi and I took turns testing our samples. They both worked but with mine...not only did I breathe fire but I also coughed and sneezed smoke. The third is a term of endearment from my girlfriend and a little private. Let's just say ts a bit girly but then that's Angel to a T.
