Druella Rosier is a pure-blood witch who married Cygnus Black III. The couple had three daughters: Bellatrix, Andromeda, and Narcissa Black. Through Andromeda, who was disowned for marrying Muggle-born wizard Ted Tonks, Druella is the grandmother of Nymphadora Tonks and great-grandmother of Teddy Lupin. Through Narcissa, she is the grandmother of Draco Malfoy and great-grandmother of Scorpius Malfoy.[1] Druella may be related to Evan Rosier, a Death Eater killed by Alastor Moody during the First Wizarding War.[2]


[edit] Behind the scenes


[edit] Etymology

Druella may be a combination of the names Drusilla, often shorted to Dru and meaning "dewy-eyed" or "fruitful", and Ella, a Norman name derived from the Germanic word ali, meaning "other".[3] Drusilla was the name of infamous Roman Emperor Caligula's favourite sister, as well as the daughter named after her.
