Zabini was the surname of a wizarding family. Their blood status is unknown, but judging by the low opinion Blaise Zabini expressed of "blood traitors" and his association with elitist pure-bloods such as Draco Malfoy,[2] they likely at least claim to be pure-blood.
Known family members[]
- Zabini - an acolyte of Gellert Grindelwald in the 1930s.[citation needed]
- Mrs Zabini — a famously beautiful witch who has been married seven times; mother of Blaise.[3][4]
- Blaise Zabini - a Slytherin student in Harry Potter's year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.[1][2]
Etymology[]
The surname Zabini is Italian, suggesting that the family is of at least partly Italian descent. It bears similarity to the name of a custard-like Italian dessert, Zabaione.
