2 min read

Bestselling author and all-around cool mom J.K. Rowling has been known to entertain her twitter followers with her snarky comebacks, Like this one about Harry Potter's kids names.

@jk_rowling hey. why didn't harry name any of his kids 'elvendork'?

I was saving the name in case I had a fourth child. https://t.co/ToMUOwrYm0

She's also been known to dole out sage (and entertaining) advice
