Shrugging off the questions, he chuckled at the 'observant'. Yeah. He took that as a compliment, actually. Trying not to look at the wand again, he said "I'm Jo-ah-oo." Pronouncing that as slowly as he could for her to get it on the first time. If she could, she would be the quickest one to get it. And his prejudice that Ranveclaws weren't that bright would probably be proven wrong.

Hopefully.

Ellie raised an eyebrow. That was...the oddest name she's ever heard. And it wasn't like her boyfriend and his sister had the most common names in the world. "Joahoo?" she asked for confirmation. "I take it most people have trouble pronouncing that? That's why you said it like that?" Because sounds could get jumbled up when one said something strange way too fast.

"Is there something else people call you? A nickname?" For the most part, those were better. But then again, if he had one, you would think he'd introduce himself as such instead of something that he feared being pronounced incorrectly. "Good to meet you either way," she nodded. Hopefully, he wasn't going to offer his hand. Because she wanted to avoid the awkwardness that followed when she didn't accept the greeting. It was just WEIRD, a handshake.

Don't think that this greeting would keep her from her work, though, Joao. After holding the boy's gaze for a polite amount of time, Ellie pulled out one of the binders from the bag. Until...she narrowed her eyes up at him. "What house are you in?" Ravenclaw? Something else? Would he be spying on her Quidditch things?
