Tremlett was the surname of a Muggle family,[1] that must have had some distant magical ancestry,[5] as Donaghan Tremlett turned out to be a Muggle-born wizard.[1]
Known family members[]
- Donaghan Tremlett — a Muggle-born wizard and bass player for the popular band the Weird Sisters.[2][3]
- Mr Tremlett — a Muggle; father of Donaghan.[1]
- Mrs Tremlett — a Muggle; mother of Donaghan.[1]
- Mrs or Mr Tremlett — spouse of Donaghan.[4]
Etymology[]
Tremlett is an English surname of Norman-French origin, derived from Les Trois Minettes, a village in Calvados, France that was apparently once the site of three mines.[6] Given Donaghan's musical profession, it may have been chosen in reference to tremolo (from the Italian, "shaking"), the rapid repetition of a single note or the alternation between multiple notes.[7]
