You Must Be Weasley :The Potterverse Most Loved Family



'Do you think my name is funny? I don't need to ask yours, red hair, hand-me-down robes, you must be Weasley' -Draco Malfoy's description of Weasley Family


One of the Pureblood families in the Wizarding world is the Weasleys. Headed by its main man & woman: Arthur and Molly plus their equally powerful seven children.

They are known for being humbled family in the magical world. And living their lives in its simplest form is what set them apart from others. Their social economic status, as pure wizards, has been taunted as a total opposite of the luxurious life of the Malfoys- one of the most powerful pureblood families in the wizarding world.

The Weasleys dwell happily in the Burrow- a magically built house made out of random sort of woods in secluded area surrounded by forestry- miles distance away from London.

Even though the family has only limited resources to make ends meet, they can still manage to have foods on their table and take control of their expenses wisely.

The hand-me-down stuffs practice, which they are known for, has been a tradition in their family from the moment Mrs.Weasley gave birth to their first child up to their last baby.-- until all of them got successfully went  to Hogwarts. It helped them save wizard moneys that they can allot much for other household necessities.


It seems like Mrs. Weasley had mastered the arts of family management with flying colors. And she deserved commendation for it because taking care of a big family is, by all means, not a joke.


The Weasley's abode was served as a temporary shelter for Harry Potter after he escaped from the wicked house of Dursleys in Privet Drive during his sophomore year.

Harry had found the motherly love from Mrs. Weasley to whom he has a huge debt of gratitude with for helping him all throughout. He was treated as same as the other Weasley siblings. He really felt he was one of the family members because of their very accommodating nature.

Harry: "I think it's brilliant."

Despite the apparent deprivation of wealth, these red hair peeps have been blessed with treasures that no amount of gringotts money can buy or have a same value of. And these treasures are their seven unique children - whose individual accomplishments have shone through that made their parents the proudest in the wizarding world.

As Potterhead, we have known from the very beginning the unique characteristics of each of these Weasley Siblings. We witnessed their strengths, weaknesses, love for one another, conflicts, different journeys and their brave contributions to cripple down the power of the darkest wizards in the magical world.

Each of them has personified distinguishing traits that make us happy and sometimes make us annoyed or cry a bucket of tears.


Given their patented traits and commendable roles all throughout the series, who among these gingerhead wizard siblings has made a difference to you and considered your most FAVORITE?  Mine is Ron. Because we both love to eat and I like Rupert Grint in the movie. I just love his character and he played it really well.
