Fudge was the surname of a wizarding family. It is unknown if they were pure-blood, or had both Muggle and magical heritage. However, given that Cornelius Fudge showed sympathies towards those with purely magical heritage (such as the Malfoys), it can be assumed that they were pure-blood, or at least half-bloods who clung onto their magical lineage.

Two known members of the family during the 1990s worked for the British Ministry of Magic, with noticeable similarities in their incompetent handling of affairs whilst in office.

Etymology

Fudge is an English surname chiefly found in the county of Somerset.[1][2] It is derived from a pet form of the English surname surname Fulcher.[1][2] The surname Fulcher derives from the Germanic male given name Fulcher/Fulchar, which means either "the people's army," from the Old German elements folk, "people", and heri/hari, "army," or "lord of the people," from folk and herr, "lord."[3][2]
