Rob Dowson^[1] was a wizard reported missing along with his relative, Ellie, on the Potterwatch radio programme in 1997. His disappearance was most likely linked to a Death Eater attack.

Etymology

The name "Robert" is from the Germanic name Hrodebert meaning "bright fame", derived from the Germanic elements hrod "fame" and beraht "bright". The Normans introduced this name to Britain, where it replaced the Old English cognate Hreodbeorht. It has been a very common English name since that time.
