The correct title of the first book is Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone - the author,
J. K. Rowling, is British, and the book was first published in the United Kingdom. The alternative Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is used only for the United States (USA) publication.
This is not the correct location to discuss suggestions for Harry Potter-related articles on Wikipedia. Please see
Wikipedia talk: WikiProject Harry Potter to bring up an idea.
Their names are often
onomatopoeic: Malfoy is difficult, Filch unpleasant and Lupin a werewolf.
This is not onomatopoeia (which requires the word to sound like what it means). These names evoke the qualities of their people by etymology. The name "Lupin" doesn't sound like a wolf, it's just an allusion to the Latin word for it; if he were named "Awoooo" that might be onomatopoeia. Not sure what the correct phrase would be or how to change this without inserting original research. The cited sources require an account to see what they say. Tagging with "Clarify".

Considering the book and movie or to be precise the universe on the whole having such a profound impact on people, it would be helpful to add a section on how much depth of impact it has on people and also on popular culture.
