It just occurred to me, Voldemorts name origin is stupid.

Tom Marvolo Riddle is his original name, and just coincidentally it translates to "I am lord Voldemort"..

Did he seriously name himself Lord Voldemort just because his full name can spell out Voldemort after "I am lord-"?

🤦‍♂️

May as well have been Mordvolet, maybe if he was a Hufflepuff.

Not only ghe name is. We're speaking of someone who's supposed to be (one of?) the most powerful dark lord ever existed, yet all he tries to achieve in 8 movies is conquering a school and killing a kid, failing both. 🙈

@Elessar That's true, literally all he does is try to take over a school.

Then again, like the three most powerful artifacts were held in it I suppose.
