A little thought...
Muggle policeman = Copper
Wizard policeman = Auror (Au = gold)
D'oh!!! So plain it never occurred to me! I can't decide if I think the
pun is intentional though...

Did you mean "au" as in the chemycal symbol? Because it comes from the latin
"Aurum", while Auror reminds me of "Aurora"...

A wizard who makes a profession (an extremely dangerous one, evidently!) of
