Is that a real name?

@CrazyMusicLover It means "beloved young girl". But that's definitely not what the kids at school would call it.

@CrazyMusicLover Yeah, I'm guessing it had fallen out of English usage until it was revived in the Harry Potter books.

@ElwoodBlues That and the fact that today's kids know what a nymphomaniac is, thanks to the internet. Poor kid would go home crying every single day of her life.
