um. So I'm listening to David Bowie? And his song "Letter to Hermione" comes on - which is a kind of "hey, you are with that guy but I bet you think about me, whoo whoo I am David Bowie" song. Except I'm just, "Snicker, snicker, her-mi-o-ne, FUNNY!" very sad. but jolting! you're reading A Winter's Tale (shut up! I live in a cultural CESSPIT! You do only read these plays!) over a cup of tea, and you're going "Ooooh, he made up the name Perdita, didn't he? I wonder if it comes from 'perdre', seeing as she is a "prodigigal" daughter?.. Hmm, I wonder if Hermione actually died or whether that was just one tricksy, tricksy nursemaid... what does Maximilius' death say to us?.." but at the same time, again... "snicker, snicker, ARNCHAGONNAGOREADABOOK, DEAD QUEEN LADY?" ...
Anyway. The point is that JK Rowling has roo-nid (or 'ruined', as some would insist it is spelt) the name forevermore. SHAMES ON HER.
