"Me cousin Fergus does it just to annoy me, you wait till I can do it back... He'll never have another peaceful moment..."
Seamus Finnigan on Apparating[src]

Fergus was an Irish wizard and Seamus Finnigan's cousin. He was known to annoy Seamus by apparating around him frequently. His parentage is unknown; however, the fact that he was a wizard suggests that he is a cousin on Seamus' mother's side, as Seamus's father was a Muggle.

Etymology

The name "Fergus" means "man of vigour", derived from the Gaelic elements fear "man" and gus "vigour". This was the name of several characters in Irish legend including the Ulster hero Fearghas mac Róich.

Notes and references

  1. He was at least seventeen years old in 1996, as he had already passed his apparation test.
