    For me it has to be Dumbledore, with Fred and George a close second...

    Hermione, Ron and Malfoy.

    Because I see myself in Hermione; I love Ron; and Malfoy's a bad boy.

    my favourite is Lupin


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,266 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    Voted for Hermione and Dumbledore in the list but my favourite character from the books is actually Remus Lupin. Think he needs a much bigger part in the final book!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,753 ✭✭✭qz


    Yup, Lupin it is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 332 ✭✭*marie*


    Damn these polls and their maximum 10 options...

    Sirius has always been one of mine.

    Though I've just been listening to HP and TOOTP on audiobook, and I've just gotten to where Fred and George leave Hogwarts. Makes them one of another of my favourite characters


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,487 ✭✭✭banquo


    Snape, because Alan Rickman plays him in the films.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,543 ✭✭✭sionnach


    gilderoy lockhart is by far the best character

    I agree, and for the same reason. He's a great character, and his performances make the films enjoyable.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,352 ✭✭✭funky penguin


    Hehehe.

    Harry is on zero.

    Lupin and Sirius have always been my favourite 2 characters. I love Prisoner of Askaban for the big part both of them have in it. Definately need to see more of Lupin in the last book.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 345 ✭✭Khalim


    Snape, because he makes Harry's life difficult at every opportunity. (Yes, I hate Harry but read the book to see him suffer. I'm weird like that)

    I completely agree! He cracks me up so much


  • Registered Users Posts: 332 ✭✭*marie*


    Harry STILL has no votes...is he really that crap?:)
    Or is it obvious that we all like him considering we all buy the books with his name on them...?

    Well he sure isn't a five time winner of witch weekly's most charming smile award.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,372 ✭✭✭The Bollox


    my fav. is Sirius and he is not in the list so I voted for Fred & George

    LOL He sure isn't!!!
    Nor has he defeated the Bandon Banshee!...oh wait...

    i love ron and his being an akward person, he is best. although there is another luna lovegood, she is just fabulous with her randomness


  • Users Awaiting Email Confirmation Posts: 199 ✭✭fun bus


    Love hagrid. if she does away with him in the last book i'll have to take a weeks compassionate leave from work just to recover


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,496 ✭✭✭*Angel*


    Hmmm so many to choose from... Sirius, Lupin, Dumbledore and Malfoy.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    Without doubt.................Professor Sinistra :D:D:D ....the Astronomy professor mentioned maybe once per book....definetly the greatest literary creation of all time..........i think she should have her own fansite.......

    unfortunately,shes not in the poll,so i voted for Snape

    Although I don't like him as a person, my favourite character has to be Snape - he's just so delightfully nasty and nuanced - the whole back-story we see in Order of the Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince is brilliant.
    Luna Lovegood rocks my socks too. I'd love to meet someone that spaced out...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,264 ✭✭✭JBoyle4eva


    I loved Dumbledore, the next book will be really strange.

    Frd & Grorge are great comic releif to the book,as is Loony Luna. She's a classic sidekick!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,618 ✭✭✭Civilian_Target


    Hermione's just likeably naive, Ginny's hilarious, Malfoys just evil and mean (which is great) and Hagrid's a sound country buffer.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 902 ✭✭✭d4gurl


    its got to be.............well i like the quirky characters that arent really featured in the book like Fleur or Trelwany but out of that List the twins and ginny - at least they bring a few laughs!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,518 ✭✭✭Kalina


    Ron by a mile, he's hilarious! And I love hagrid aswell.

    Totally agree! Snape is my favourite and has been for years. He just fascinates me as a character and the more back-story we get for him, the more interesting he becomes! Luna was a pleasant surprise in a book I otherwise didn't enjoy that much. And she continues to be great and fun and the un-stereotypical Ravenclaw. If all the houses could have some examples of non-stereotypical students from them I'd enjoy the Harry Potter series a lot more.

    Hermione also deserves an honourable mention from me as one of my favourite characters. I can understand why anyone would find her infuriating, but as someone said earlier, I can identify a lot of my character in her so I can't help but like her. And occasionally feel embarrassed with her too!
