Who else hates when Harry Potter names in your language sound kinda weird and strange?

I DO! I just hate how the translators or whoever they are have spoiled such a beautiful name as Hermione..u know in Russian it sounds Ger-me-o-na ughh
Why on Earth Hedwig sounds like Book-lya !
and mais and mais and more...PHEW!

I don't think any of the first names have been translated in my language but many nice last names have been completely ruined. UGH!! xPP

Well, yes. I'm from Norway and a lot of the names are really ugly in Norwegian.
I tend to ignore them, though. Read the English books and watch the filmes without subtitles.

I see how that would be annoying. I personally only read the first four books in Norwegian, and then forgot all about it when I moved to England. (I couldn't get hold of any Norwegian books, and didn't understand the language well enough to read them in English) I didn't really have any problem with the names since I read it all again in English later.

I am learning Norsk, but I can´t read the books in Norsk in Singapore. I am British.

In polish they only translated Fudge's name and it took me forever to figure out who the hell is "Fudge" when I was talking with other fãs in english.
