  1. Professor Trelawney. You'll never guess where Rowling came up with that name. Sir William Trelawny, 6th Baronet. Think of Obeh and (V)Hoodoo mixed with the Brit's love of tea. The Brit's gave the Jamaicans the idea, as well as ideas such as "witch's bottles." Coincidently, that parish is home to many elite spa/resorts. I hear that the Mangos Jamaica - Adults Only - All Inclusive, can be a really wild place. I wonder if Rowling was a visitor? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_William_Trelawny,_6th_Baronet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trelawny_Parish . "Tasseography (also known as Tasseomancy or Tassology, (Tasseology) is a divination or fortune-telling method that interprets patterns in tea leaves, coffee grounds, or wine sediments. In more modern practice, residues of other beverages such as hot chocolate, beer or juice can also be read and interpreted." . They beat you to the punch.
