After seizing indirect control of the British Ministry of Magic in 1997, Voldemort made his own name Taboo. Thus, whenever his name was spoken aloud, Death Eaters and Snatchers were alerted to the location of the speaker.
The traditional Aramaic meaning of Tom is 'twin,' and as Tom Marvolo Riddle was such a singular character perhaps it's not surprising he disliked his common first name.
Throughout the series, Rowling establishes that Voldemort is so feared in the wizarding world that it is considered dangerous even to speak his name. Most characters in the novels refer to him as "You-Know-Who" or "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named" rather than say his name aloud.
Why You Can't Say VOLDEMORT'S Name - Harry Potter Explained
Why didn't Harry Potter say Avada Kedavra?
To Harry, Voldemort was the epitome of evil, as was the Killing Curse by extension, so he would not use the Unforgivable Curse that killed his parents. It's also believed that Avada Kedavra requires the caster to be willing to commit murder for the spell to work.
He is simply awed by her and never hides how impressed he is. In the books, Harry never was attracted to Hermione because she was emotional, had average looks and hated his favourite sport, quidditch. He liked girls who were strong, beautiful and played quidditch.
The prevailing theory has been that Voldemort gradually lost his nose (and humanity) throughout his life due to his exclusive use of Dark Magic. The more Dark Magic he tapped into, the less human he became both figuratively and literally. This was only amplified as he split his soul to create the Horcruxes.
For most people, saying Voldemort's name was difficult and he was commonly named “You Know Who” or “He Who Must Not Be Named” (or Dark Lord by Death Eaters). Harry, however, called him Voldemort right from the start and even got scolded for it.
With no one to claim him as their own, Tom lived in a Muggle-run orphanage where he felt abandoned and unloved. He slowly realized he was different from others and became obsessed with his powers, believing he was unique and elite.
Irrespective of its reach and influence over millions of people around the world, Harry Potter is still a children's book at heart; and it excels in the process of being one. Portraying teenagers in a realistic way at the expense of introducing swear words into younger children's vocabulary is not desirable.
What is the most powerful offensive spell in Harry Potter?
The most sinister of the Unforgivables is Avada Kedavra – the Killing Curse – an incredibly powerful spell and a favorite of Lord Voldemort's. Nobody knows exactly how this curse works, suffice it to say that it ends life in an instant.
Yes, seriously. Despite being the Chosen One, a great wizard-in-training, etc., Harry doesn't cast a single spell during Sorcerer's Stone. It's true that he accidentally does magic a few different times throughout the film, but he never once actually casts a spell successfully.
As Harry said, Dumbledore was the only person who could see right through Tom Riddle. He was already suspicious about what Tom did to the kids from orphanage and later to Myrtle and Hagrid. As one of his teachers, he knew Tom's tendencies toward Dark Arts. And yet he didn't do anything about them.
He is tall, and skeletally thin. His face is an almost opaque texture, with deep, dark scarlet red eyes set in slits. His nose is as flat as a snake's, leaving small incisions for nostrils, and his fingers are unnaturally long, like a spider's legs.
Tom's eyes became permanently bloodshot and his skin grew paler with every murder he committed and with every horcrux he used. By the time he obtained six horcruxes, he was no longer recognizable as Tom Riddle, rather, he had become the Dark Lord Voldemort entirely, through and through.
Mason Riddle is the Son of Tom Marvalo Riddle, otherwise known as Lord Voldemort, and the only American student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
For the second time in Voldemort's life, the unforgivable curse rebounded on him, as the Elder Wand wouldn't kill its master. Since Harry and his friends had already destroyed all of Voldemort's Horcruxes, this finally ended Lord Voldemort's life, with Harry finally defeating the Dark Lord.
Delphini, being the only known living heir of Salazar Slytherin and the daughter of Lord Voldemort, possesses the unique ability to speak Parseltongue. This rare skill allows her to communicate with snakes, a trait she inherited from her father and the Slytherin bloodline.
Delphi was conceived from a liaison between Lord Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange. She was born in March of 1998 at Malfoy Manor, shortly before the Battle of Hogwarts.
Snape was born to Eileen Prince, a witch, and Tobias Snape, a Muggle, making him a half-blood (hence the name, "Half-Blood Prince"). This is rare for a Death Eater, as remarked in the last book, though Voldemort himself also had a Muggle father.
Why didn't Harry use Avada Kedavra (The killing spell) on Voldemort? They've fought many times and he never used it. Partly because he's a reasonable person, and doesn't aim to kill. Also, he may have not been physically able to do so.
Cho's lingering feelings for Cedric and a lack of chemistry between her and Harry contributed to their breakup, leading to Harry ultimately ending up with Ginny Weasley.
In the books there are plenty of reasons why Harry would like Ginny. She is smart, strong, funny, sassy, a good quidditch player, pretty... Even Fred and George mention that she is quite popular with boys. Harry and her spend a lot of time together in OotP where he gets to know her and becomes her friend.
