MeinMMO wanted to know from you which character from Harry Potter is your favorite. Now we reveal the results. Who made it to the winner’s podium?
What kind of survey was that? The survey was about choosing your favorite character from Harry Potter. The selection was huge, as there are so many unique and unforgettable characters that have captured our hearts.
Thus, you could select up to three characters that you particularly liked. Since then, there have been 2,207 votes, with 47 different characters to choose from. In the comments, you could also mention other characters that were not listed.
From your votes, we have now created a ranking.
Warning Spoiler: This article contains spoilers about various events in Harry Potter.
The most popular Harry Potter
characters of the MeinMMO community
Here you can see which characters made it to places 10-4:
- Place 10: Ginny Weasley (4 % with 160 votes)
- Place 9: Remus Lupin (4 % with 173 votes)
- Place 8: Draco Malfoy (5 % with 200 votes)
- Place 7: Harry Potter (5 % with 215 votes)
- Place 6: Dobby (6 % with 223 votes)
- Place 5: Sirius Black (6 % with 234 votes)
- Place 4: Minerva McGonagall (6 % with 236 votes)
Hagrid, Hedwig, Ron, and Dumbledore narrowly missed the top 10. It was a close race between Sirius and Minerva, but Minerva secured 4th place. Dobby was also a must-have. The kind-hearted house-elf is also very popular with you.
Four of you voted for Dudley Dursley, and one even for the traitor Peter Pettigrew. And then there are the two who actually voted for Dolores Umbridge – shame on you! The actress of Dolores Umbridge herself calls her a damn monster
.
Overall, all 47 characters that were available received at least one vote – except for Rita Kimmkorn.
Now, however, let’s move on to the top three positions of the MeinMMO community ranking that we will present to you in more detail.
Place 3: Luna Lovegood
- Result: 8 % with 333 votes
You chose Luna Lovegood for 3rd place, and she deserves it more than anyone. She is truly unique. Often in Harry Potter, she is laughed at for her eccentric behavior, whether it’s due to her theories about magical creatures like Nargles, but she doesn’t care. While she may be an outsider, she always stays true to herself and ultimately finds true friends.
Her quirky, distinctive nature and especially her brave and strong character make her so lovable. She reminds us that it’s perfectly okay to be different. All of this and much more make her a character you simply have to hold dear. Who wouldn’t want a Luna by their side?
Place 2: Severus Snape
- Result: 11 % with 434 votes
Severus Snape lands in 2nd place! He is undoubtedly one of the most complex characters in Harry Potter. At first, he seems to us like the grim teacher and typical villain that everyone fears: dressed in dark clothes, with a stern expression and an unfair dislike for Harry.
But there is so much more behind it.
Snape was in love with Lily Evans (later Potter) since childhood. His immortal love for Lily Potter and his loyalty to Dumbledore show his true side. He makes difficult decisions and makes many sacrifices to do what is right. As a double agent, he is willing to risk his own life to thwart Voldemort’s plans. Snape is the unsung hero of the story, without whom much would not have been possible.
The transformation from a seemingly dubious antagonist
to a hero is one of the best turning points. Harry honors him by naming his son after him and Dumbledore: Albus Severus Potter.
Place 1: Hermione Granger
- Result: 13 % with 523 votes
Hermione Granger takes the top spot! She is the most popular Harry Potter
character of the MeinMMO community.
Hermione is simply the ultimate all-rounder: extremely smart, brave, and always ready to fight for her friends. She is the wizarding world’s version of a real power woman – whether it’s about saving Harry and Ron from a mess or simply reciting the next crucial spell.
Hermione is the one who keeps her cool when everyone else loses their heads. Without her, Ron and Harry would probably have been lost a long time ago. It’s no wonder that you voted her into 1st place.
Thank you for your participation! What do you think about the ranking results? Which characters would you have liked to see higher up? And why did you choose Hermione, Luna, Snape, or someone else?
