oh awesome! win a thousand bucks just because you have the "right" name. hhmm... seems kinda unfair, since it will be an all-male thing, unless there's a girl named Harry Potter out there...

There could be. Harry is a nickname for Harriet. But it's not just based on the name, it's about the profile and story too.

Cool! But based on profile? But you could just get your hair to be just right, and fein having a character just like Harry's couldn't you?

I wonder if really sneaky, HP-loving fans, whose surname is Potter, would go through the whole process of changing their names legally to enter this thing?

Meh, you can never tell with fans.

Lol. If they're big fans they may change their names anyway.

That's a cool thing to do. I wonder how many people out there are actually named Harry Potter, though.
