While Sirius is officially Harry's godfather and he does a lot to protect him, there are also many reasons why Hagrid was the better father figure in Harry's life.
Lily ad James made Sirius Harry's godfather, not Hagrid. Harry is more like Sirius, than Hagrid. In the Harry Potter series, who do you think is Harry's main father figure across the series? Honestly, none of them.
Sirius Black and James Potter attended Hogwarts together, and Sirius is Harry's godfather. Sirius is an Animagus, which means he can transform himself into a black, shaggy dog named Padfoot at will. Years ago, Sirius was wrongly imprisoned at Azkaban for the murder of thirteen people.
Though it was what happened next that really made us view Hagrid as a father figure. Any child starting a new school needs to get their school supplies together, and often it is your parents who help with that.
Hermione eventually married Ron Weasley and together they had two children, Rose and Hugo. She became the godmother of Harry and Ginny Potter's eldest son James.
Any Hogwarts house would have been lucky to count Albus Potter amongst its numbers, but with apologies to Gryffindor, Ravenclaw and Huffepuff – we reckon the Sorting Hat got it right with Albus – even if it was a rather big shock that one of Harry Potter's children ended up in Slytherin.
Hagrid later becomes friends with Ron and Hermione as well. Later in the book, a hooded person (Quirinus Quirrell in disguise) gives him a dragon egg to elicit details about Fluffy.
At the abrupt end of the First Wizarding War, Albus Dumbledore sent Hagrid to rescue a one-year-old Harry Potter from the ruins of his house in Godric's Hollow, after Lord Voldemort murdered both James and Lily Potter in 1981.
At the beginning of the Battle of Hogwarts, the Death Eaters invaded the home of the Acromantula and drove them to attack the school. When the spiders attacked, Hagrid ran forwards to protect them. Acromantula are horribly strong, so it is likely that they captured him and took him to Lord Voldemort.
No there isn't any indication in the books or in Rowling interviews about Severus Snape being Draco's godfather. When Narcissa went to convince Snape to kill Dumbledore for her son, she used every argument she could pull such as Snape being 'Lucius old friend' or complimenting on his skills.
History. Rubeus Hagrid, a half-giant, was born on 6 December 1928 to Mr Hagrid (a wizard) and Fridwulfa (a giantess) and grew up in the West Country of England.
Hagrid knew who Voldemort was before Voldemort appeared at the political scene of the magical world. He just refuses to use either of his names. And when he gave Harry the name, he gave him the name, Harry had to know. Hagrid very well knew, Voldemort was Tom Riddle.
After leaving school, Sirius fought against Voldemort, eventually joining the Order of the Phoenix. He remained close friends with James and eventually attended James and Lily Evans' (now Lily Potter) wedding as their best man. When their son, Harry, was born, Lily and James named Sirius as Harry's godfather.
Under the influence of her father, Dolores grew up despising her mother and brother for their lack of magical abilities. She was sorted into Slytherin House at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and hated her time at the school due to never being given any positions of power.
Hagrid doesn't have a patronus. It's heartbreaking that one of the biggest animal lovers in the series couldn't conjure up the spell to have a protective charm in animal form. In a tweet, Rowling said that Hagrid couldn't produce a patronus because it's a very difficult spell.
Quirrell knew he wanted a dragon egg and used it to manipulate Hagrid into telling him how to get around Fluffy. Hagrid then went to the Hogwarts library to borrow books on caring for a dragon. Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger found the section he was browsing and deduced why.
Sirius kept Buckbeak with him while on the run during the 1994–1995 school year, and later kept him in his mother's bedroom while in hiding at 12 Grimmauld Place. After Sirius's death, Buckbeak came to be owned by Harry Potter through Sirius's will, though Harry allowed him to live with Hagrid.
On 31 July 1991, Rubeus Hagrid, despite being forbidden to perform magic, attempted to transfigure Dudley Dursley into a pig, after his father Vernon Dursley had crudely insulted Albus Dumbledore at the Hut-on-the-Rock, but only managed to give him a tail.
Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy (b. c. 2006) was a British pure-blood wizard and the only child and son of Draco and Astoria Malfoy (née Greengrass). He attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from 2017 and onwards and was sorted into Slytherin House.
Looking into the past, the true heir of Slytherin turns out to be none other than Tom Marvolo Riddle, better known as Lord Voldemort, the Dark Lord. Besides his ability to speak Parseltongue, which he passed on to Harry after he survived his attack, his bloodline was linked to the Hogwarts founder.
Her real parents were Daneel and Dean Novak, Pureblooded wizards. Turns out Daneel was Tom Riddles younger sister, Daneel Riddle. Of course, the Riddles were related to Salzar Slytherin himself, and this made Hermione the living heir of Slytherin.
