Harry Potter Etymology | Kingsley Shacklebolt
KINGSLEY: It is of Old English origin, and the meaning of Kingsley is “king’s meadow.”
SHACKLEBOLT: “Bolt which passes through the eyes of a shackle.” In heraldry, the shacklebolt symbolizes “victory; one who has taken prisoners or rescued prisoners of war.” Or perhaps “bolting from shackles,” which may have been a foreshadowing of Kingsley fighting his way away from Death Eaters after breaking the Taboo.

“A voice. Your voice, Hermione. You said my name. Just my name. Like a whisper. So I took it, clicked it and this tiny ball of light appeared. And I knew. It flew towards me, the ball of light, right through my chest and straight through me. Right here. And I knew it was going to take me where I needed to go.” -Ron Weasley

People ask me if there are going to be stories of Harry Potter as an adult.

“the bird, the pin, the song, the berries, the watch, the cracker, the dress that burst into flames. i am the mockingjay. the one who survived despite the capitol’s plans. the symbol of the rebellion.”
“As an actor, there is room for a certain amount of creativity, but you’re always ultimately going to be saying somebody else’s words. I don’t think I’d have the stamina, skill or ability to write a novel, but I’d love to write short stories and poetry, because those are my two passions.” - Daniel Radcliffe
