Young Miss Weasley

[Louis Epstein]

It bothers me when people nickname Victoire Weasley "Tori"...which may be
acceptable for a "Victoria",but makes no sense as an abbreviation for a
French name that is pronounced "Vic-TWAHR".

Anyone here share this feeling?

The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,
at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.

Not very different from "Les Mis" fans nicknaming Eponine "Pony" (and
indicative of the same misplaced stress, I imagine.) And of course,
we've already suffered through "Mione"...
