Stuart Craggius was a wizard whose name was carved into wood paneling on a wall of Professor Trelawney's Divination classroom.[1]

Etymology[]

From an occupational surname originally belonging to a person who was a steward. It is ultimately derived from Old English stig "house" and weard "guard". As a given name, it arose in 19th-century Scotland in honour of the Stuart royal family, which produced several kings and queens of Scotland and Britain between the 14th and 18th centuries.

Behind the scenes[]

  • This character's name is presumably a tribute to Stuart Craig, the production designer on all the Harry Potter films.
