Best Answer

J.K. Rowling has said that Severus Snape, along with many of her other characters, are loosely based on people she knew in real life, but developed their own distinct characteristics as she developed the character. Professor Snape is loosely based on a professor she had herself.

Why do people in Harry Potter have the same letter initials?

I'm assuming you mean they have alliterative initials, not that all the characters' initials are the same.Mostly they don't. e.g. Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Albus Dumbledore, Sirius BlackBut admittedly quite a lot of them do... e.g Luna Lovegood, Minerva McGonagall, Severus Snape,There's no real reason behind this, and many people in real life have alliterative names as well.


When did Albus Dumbledore die in real life?

He died when Severus Snape used Avada Kedavra on him in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. It turned out that Snape killed Dumbledore upon Dumbledore's request. Dumbledore did not want Lord Voldemort to gain power of the Elder Wand, so he had a man that he trusted kill him so that Dumbledore would be the last true master of the wand.Snape had been Dumbledore's man ever since Voldemort threatened Lily Evans life. Snape then begged Dumbledore to help protect her. In return Snape was to suggest to Voldemort that he pretend to join the Order of the Phoenix as a spy, in reality he was spying on the Death Eaters for the Order and only passing on select information to Voldemort.He was killed by snape under the orders of both voldemort and dumbeldore himself. He then fell over a hundred. Feet off the highest tower at hogwarts.

No one has ever liked Severus Snape. Everyone thinks of him as a greasy haired boy that is a trader. Why would Dumbledore ever trust him?Millions of (real life, not fictional) teenage girls have great crushes on him;) That surprised even the author.From wikipedia:In an interview, Rowling described Snape's character as an "antihero". She has said that she drew inspiration for Snape's character from a disliked teacher from her own childhood, and described Snape as a horrible teacher: "the worst, shabbiest thing you can do as a teacher is to bully students."

What do snape and Sirius argue about?

Severus Snape and Sirius Black have been enemies since they were at Hogwarts. James Potter and Sirius were best friend, and since Snape detested James, he naturally hated Sirius, too. Several times they argue in "Order of the Phoneix" over Sirius's inability to help the order as much as the other members, since he is falsely believer to be a mass murderer. The two usually bicker pointlessly without any real point to their arguments.
