It's a day later and I'm still laughing at Todger Strunk. Do you think he goes by Tod, T.S., or the Strunkmeister?

(yes, that's an actual family that JKR borrowed the name from) So pretty fun but also terrible?

It sounds like a fine idea now, but wait until it becomes popular, and every other child in class is called If-Jesus-Christ-had-not-died-for-thee-thou-hadst-been-damned, and you have to call your friends If-Jesus-Christ-had-not-died-for-thee-thou-hadst-been-damned B., If-Jesus-Christ-had-not-died-for-thee-thou-hadst-been-damned McA, and If-Jesus-Christ-had-not-died-for-thee-thou-hadst-been-damned McC to avoid confusion.
