Harry Potter Character - Ron Weasley
Ron's best friends at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry are Harry Potter and Hermione Granger. Ron was born to Arthur Weasley and Molly Prewett Weasley, members of an old and well-known pure-blood Wizarding family. Ron is the sixth of seven children, and is the youngest son. Ron grew up in The Burrow, near the village of Ottery St. Catchpole in Devon. Ron has five older brothers, Bill, Charlie, Percy, twins Fred and George, and a little sister, Ginny. Most of his fellow Gryffindors and other friendly classmates call him "Ron," with the exception of Luna Lovegood, who calls him by his full name, and Lavender Brown, who briefly used the endearment "Won-Won" while they were dating. His brothers, Fred and George jokingly refer to him as "ickle Ronniekins" in the first book. Draco Malfoy and other less-than-friendly students from rival Hogwarts Houses generally call him "Weasley." Dobby the house-elf referred to him once as "Wheezy." At the beginning of the series, Mr. Weasley is head of the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office, a minor division in the Ministry of Magic's Department of Magical Law Enforcement. This is an impressive sounding position, but one which barely earns Mr. Weasley enough to support his large family. Throughout the series, Ron is very self-conscious and frustrated with his family's poorness. Despite their lack of money, Ron has such caring parents and a closeknit family that he is lucky in ways he may not realize. |
