• Video -~-
Has anyone ever wondered the real reason as to why so many people were afraid to say voldmeorts name? Like it was literally a no no. So much to the point that he was referred to as You-Know-Who and He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named or for the braver souls, the dark lord. Those names basically mean it was widely and publicly agreed by many that his name would never be spoken. That for me only says one thing, this man was was the direct description of the word terrifying. So in todays video we’re going to looking at the exact reasons as to why so many people feared his name and also how he used it to his advantage in order to gain information. We’ll also be looking at how certain people were afraid to say his name and those who were fearless when it came to speaking the words Lord Voldemort.

Amazing video Dean! You’re the master of explaining everything Harry Potter
Thanks bro! Our collab vid is out tomorrow 😎
Both of you are great at it
Guys i both love your channel so mu ch its where i get all my knowledge of harry potter from
Pin that man
You are both so amazing. We need content like yours in these Dark times.
Harry: "Can you write it down ?
Hagrid : "Naah, can't spell it."
Me: Voldeturd. Oh, wait. Wrong one. Well, I got you more than halfway there.
It only alerted your location to Voldemort if you said “Voldemort”, Harry and the gang should have therefore just referred to him as “Voldy” or “Tromedlov”
lol yes or
MOLDY
What about: Lord Voldy Thingy.
Or Moldywort

I don’t see why everyone just didn’t call him Tom Riddle.
His past was unknown for most people except his teachers and classmates
@@pilaracevedo2078 But why wouldn't that information spread?
Or why don’t they simply call him ‘assh0le’ or ‘bastard’😂
Voldemort was always furious when he was called Tom Riddle those few times. I don't think that would sit any better, and people probably didn't want to spread the name in fear that he would find them. Besides, even if it did spread, Voldemort probably would have just put a taboo on Tom Riddle too. He would probably be mad if people did call him by his real name, rather than neutral about people calling him Voldemort and only using that taboo as a weapon of fear and control. So people would actually be in more danger
wariolandgoldpiramid Because people were fearful that If they spread the news,Voldemort would kill them
Plot twist:they feared lord voldemort might take their nose
Lol
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Boop, I’ve got your nose
your comment made me laugh
Not funny anymore
So essentially, Voldemort's name being said or repeated was like someone putting a gun to your head. Any regular person would be scared for their lives if someone could just call on Voldemort if his name dare be spoken. Quite the act of terrorism if you ask me.
@@croma0023 I think you would change your mind if a movie on the first wizarding war strictly after the books was released...
Voldemort: Doesn’t like the name “Tom” so he called himself “Voldemort”
Order of the Phoenix: *Calls him Voldemort*
Also Voldemort:
*Well yes, but actually no.*
I don't the taboo spell was placed on his name, the first time around for a few reasons. In the "Deathly Hallows" it isn't used until after they took over the ministry and this leads me to the belief that they require the might of the ministry to cast the spell on such a scale. If it was something he could directly, he would have casted it again, the moment his return was revealed to the world.
There is also the "Always call things by their name. Fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself" quote by Dumbledore. If the taboo spell had been in place the first time, it would be quite douchey of Dumbledore to expect others to use the name without fear it if it calls forth the Death Eaters. He might have been able to fight any threat, but he did know that the same didn't go for others, so it would have been utterly cruel to say this to anyone. And it isn't that he did this, when the Dark Lord had been presumed dead by ages, he asked McGonagall to call him Voldemort, moments after his first physical death... And I think he always has done this, even when Voldemort was still alive.
But I do think there was a spell on his name and it all has to do with the quote "Fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself". He cursed his name in such a way that if you are scared of it or him, it only gets worse, the longer you don't say his name. Not speaking his name and being taught to fear the name, makes the curse stronger, so the more you call him "You Know Who" or "He Who Must Not Be Named", the more afraid the user becomes of speaking or hearing the name Voldemort in the first place. Everyone who hears the name Voldemort in the magical world, reacts almost like it is painful to speak it and are immediately struck by immense fear. Even Hermione had this cringe reaction, despite never having learned to fear the name prior to her Hogwarts days and when she spoke his name outloud for the first time, it was as if she had to overcome her fear for the name. This ever increasing cycle of fear around his name, is quite clever to think of it, it assures that people keep their fear for you intact without you needing to lift another finger and would explain why Dumbledore never understood the fear. He realized how the spell worked and how not speaking his name only made the curse stronger.
I think you got it exactly right.
Actually, it was only Death Eaters who called him The Dark Lord.
Lovegood did too if i remember correctly
@@elephantchessboard9060 and trillawny or however you spell her name. "The one with to power to destroy the dark lord approaches" and all...
also dumbledore
@@YitocukKilic Dumbledore actually called him by his name.
@@YitocukKilic He called Tom face to face
Do they know though to whom and how many people they apparate?
I imagine dumbledore just sitting outside hogwarts lazily saying:
"Voldemort" - **knocks out appearing deatheaters**
"Voldemort" - **knocks out more deatheaters**
"Voldemort" - **knocks out even more deatheaters**
...
Talk about an efficient way to get rid of deatheaters
Lmfao 🤣 😅😅😅😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂
Why didn't J.K think of that? Would've been so much easier just to keep on saying his name outside with like, fifty incredibly well trained wizards.
Or just get like 50 people apparating around the country like crazy saying *Voldemort* everytime before they disapparate again.
@@475CH1 That is brilliant.
Most people: "He who must not be named."
Me: You mean "Mr. Botched nose job"?
Lmfao 🤣
I always call him "mr. No nose"!
Lol!
There is a small problem with your explanation. The snatchers who capture the trio didn't have the dark mark
I believe that's a change in the movies. In the books it was Fenrir Greyback and his werewolves, who served the deatheaters.
Arterexius I thought it was grey back and the death eaters because there is one point we’re a snatcher said to grey back that he’s allowed to wear death eaters robes but he doesn’t have the dark mark so he’s not a death eater or something along the lines of that
It could have been that the death eaters could have told them to check the situation
It was a fault in the movie in the book death eaters and grey back capture them
Indeed, it was one of the reasons why Greyback insisted they went to Malfoy Manor in the books. He didn't want to reveal to the snatchers that while he wore the robes of a Death Eater, he never received the Dark Mark. But I think that the taboo spell simply alarms the closest Voldemort sympathizers, be it Snatchers or be it Death Eaters.
Why, when they found out that the name was taboo, why didn’t they (the order of the Phoenix) use it against him. For instance some one says the name CRACK! Snatchers show up. Aurors and order of the Phoenix members surround the snatchers, capture them and keep saying Voldemort until they are all captured!?! I would have ended very differently, but I think it’s a good idea.
Skipping Along At that point, the Order was greatly outnumbered.
If they were doing it right they could have pulled it off. The could set magical traps and stuff.
Also a lot of the snatchers were really dumb.
isnt it the death eaters choice to go or not? I dont think they must go to a certain place where the word Voldemort was mentioned, they wont automatically go there, they're not a robot
Good Idea, but a very short book
There is a small problem with the dark mark theory, because when Harry spoke his name, they were ambushed by Greyback and some bountyhunters, and it's stated later, that none of them had the mark on them. I believe that they used something else, probably they used the powers of the ministry of magic, but I really don't know. The video is, nevertheless, still amazing, and I really love these vids :).
"There is no neutral ground in Voldemort's eyes."
To be honest, there is no neutral ground in the eyes of those being terrorized either. If you're neutral, you allow for their torment, and thus you've chosen your side.
You either are part of solution or part of the problem ... or part of the furniture.
Seth Finberg no u don’t have to be a part of the solution and not be a part of the problem
Could’ve just took a broom ride out of Europe and you would be fine.
Not how it works, not at all.
If standing up against something puts yourself at incalculable risk, there's barely anything to gain, if anything at all.
Why don't you go over to North Korea, and tell the citizens to stand up for themselves? You'll find yourself lined up next to everyone else who followed in front of a death squad.
We're not talking a risk of getting a beating, where your logic applies, we're talking people like Bellatrix, who will torture you for fun, and dispose of you when they get bored. Laying low sometimes is the difference between survival and a gruesome death. Think about that next time you apply your "for us or against us" bs.
None of your business Then you have chosen your side anyway. You didn’t need to do something that could potentially put you at grave risk, but just in your thought and decision to stay in the right side of things. Your small decisions can already represent your side. Intolerance to dictatorship does not mean you will go to North Korea and tell the citizens to revolt, that’s just stupid on your side, but speaking up alone means a lot already.
In reality putting yourself at grave risk for the sake of justice and peace is stupidity, but don’t you think the world of today needs more stupid people?
His name is Voldemort- like in portugese we can say "Vale de morte" means valley of death... I guess JK lived in Portugal for two yrs... so she might have come with that idea. It could be.!!
Voldemort apparently comes from French "vol de mort" in English, theft of death.
Flight from death/steal from death (french)
QUESTION: How is the Graduation Ceremony at Hogwarts like? It is like the ones in muggle schools or it is different? I hope you answer my question, love your videos ❤️
@carito24h Graduation isn't a thing in British schools, so likely non-existent.

According to JK seventh years would use the boats again to get back to Platform 9 3/4, paralleling how first years use the boats to get to the castle, seventh years use the boats to leave.

If you're a D.B.Z. fan you know The Rest and I know The Death Eaters are from
The Harry Potter Movies. I just wanted to add something from D.B.Z. because I'm a Fan of both D.B.Z. and Harry Potter.
In the first terror reign of Voldemort, saying his name brought a witch or wizard out of hiding and Death Eaters found those people immediately.
omg..u are my faviourate character
Omg Tom i love you. Why did you have to make horcruxes
Why did you have to have an ego the size of your head and arrogance the size of Mount Rushmore.
Hey Tom, Don't take this The Wrong way.
I'm Not Scared to say Voldemort.
6:54 And with Dumbledore it was basically "I still remember you as the 11 year old boy I met in the orphanage and as a Hogwarts student Tom. I'm not letting you scare me with this monster you've turned yourself into."
One issue with the theory. None of the snatchers who caught Harry, Ron, and Hermione were death eaters. Greyback was allowed to wear death eater robes, but was never granted a dark mark. Good idea though!
I heard somewhere that Greyback was a Death Eater, but lower class, because he was working for his own bussines,but also was at the same time an ally of Voldemort that's why he joined the Snatchers, and also, i think that Greyback had Death Eater mark on his hand if i'm not mistaken it was written in the books
ALAZER BBX “the werewolf might be allowed to use Death Eater robes when they wanted to use him, but only Voldemtort’s inner circle were branded with the Dark Mark: Greyback had not been granted this highest honor.” -Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Ch. 23 “Malfoy Manor” page 454. Hope that explains :)
@@jaymoto2459 have it your way :D
I wanna know why in the movie, he was a death eater but in the book he wasnt? Like did anyone else notice this or just me?
None of the Death Eaters that capture Harry, Ron and Hermione have the Dark Mark so your theory doesn't hold up. My theory is that the taboo was brought into force by Pious Thicknesse when he became Minister for Magic. The snatchers/ death eaters, would operate under the Department for Magical Law Enforcement and therefore be immediately alerted if the taboo is broken.
I have a headcanon that wizard parents put a Taboo on swear words to catch their children saying it.
Name magic. With a Being of Great Power, the utterance of his or her name is an invocation. One is likely to find one's self staring into the angry face of such a Being moments after saying The Name. And one had best be prepared with a pretty damned good response when the Being inquires, tersely and perhaps just a bit _too_ softly,
" _Why_ have you summoned me?"
Voldemort fancied himself a Being of Power, but he couldn't manage this particular trick until he had usurped the Ministry of Magic. Once there, he was able to coopt the mechanism that alerted the Ministry to spells, charms, and curses being performed on or in front of Muggles. Instead, the Trace would now alert the Dark Ministry to the exact location of anyone bold enough to speak the name, Voldemort.
I really appreciate the time you put into this....however, I do have a different interpretation though. I think the taboo worked more like the "trace" on underage wizards. Placed by the Ministry of Magic since Voldemort had infiltrated it. The Snatchers worked for the Ministry, not Voldemort directly. Especially since saying his name broke the protective enchantments. None of the snatchers had a dark mark. The head snatcher said they were taking this lot to Malfoy Manor instead of to the Ministry because he recognized Harry's scar, even though his face was distorted.
Shans Tale that makes more sense
Loving the Voldemort videos you have been coming out with!
DO NOT SPEAK THE NAME!!!
Lol jk
The thing I don't understand is, why did Dumbledore not tell Harry about taboo? In fact, he encouraged Harry to say his name without fear.
This seems very irresponsible, especially after Voldomort was restored.
My mother snaps whenever someone says the word "cancer" because she thinks simply saying or hearing the word increases the chance that one will develop it
Jestifer Chalice no way 😂
Voldemort, when broken up as vol de mort, is french and it translates to flight of death
Reb ZP well that is something to know ?!?
@@elementalheroneos2757 yep it shows that Voldemort feared death + he fled away from death by his hocruxes
Instead of calling him Lord Voldemort let’s all annoy him by calling him Tom Marvolo Riddle.
After Voldemort's death, his name will be used as an adjective

After I learned about the taboo, the question that always nagged me was why wasn't there a taboo placed on the substitute names as well? They were known just as well if not better than Voldemort after all those years, that could have been of good use too
Yes, actually put taboo on all words, that would be efficient.
@@vladmarcu3536 but that would have them popping in and out of the presence of their allies, enemies, muggles, everyone
@@PMickeyDee Yes you are right.
They only placed a taboo on Voldermort because voldy himself knew that everyone called him you-know-who or he who must not be named except for his enemies who used voldermort instead
@@luvxleema8761 if I remember correctly the death eaters also used Lord Voldemort as well
Na it seems this taboo of not saying Voldemort's name only came about through testimonies of people who saw death eaters summoning him with the tattoo. They didn't understand how they were doing it, just saw it and said that speaking his name summoned him. Then fear and superstition easily made it spread.
MrSplinter345 but wasn’t Harry and hermione found by those 2 death eaters cause they said it
@@lewisprice2743 He meant during the first war, the taboo became a real threat only in the second war.
Do you read the books? Have you read them lately? Greyback did not have a dark mark and it was him and his group that caught “the trio” after Harry questioned Hermionie as to why she couldn’t accept that Voldemort was looking for the elder wand. Once they realized who they’d caught, they asked Greyback if he would call him (Voldemort) to where they were. Greyback said he couldn’t. He couldn’t call him because he didn’t have the mark. So that theory doesn’t work.
I never considered the possibility that he put a taboo on his name the first time around. It makes a lot of sense, really. It would be a great way to explain why people were so traumatised that they continued to be afraid to use it
It really puts into perspective how dangerous he was that they knew if they said the name death eaters would appear: absolutely horrific if you think about all the confusion about that first time around.
He was 10 steps ahead, until lost the soul shard that contained his charisma in Nagini.
First! Oh my gosh I am first! I luv u Dean your creations are fantastic! U should do more collabs with movieflame!
Yeah u should
Harry calling Voldemort "Tom" humanizes him. Its makes sense why Voldemort hates it.
Did he take over the ministry in the first wizarding war? It seemed like the taboo was
something only the ministry could handle like the floo network.
Not fully but he had moles like yaxley, rockwood and malfoy who were very infulencial
Why didn't Bellatrix not offer her wand to the Dark Lord in the Malfoy mansion?
I think probably alhtough it would've been an incredible honour to her, she viewed herself as Voldemorts most important and loyal servant and therefore needed her wand. Anyone else in the room couldn't match her importance in her eyes and therefore should take the honour of offering their wand.
@@475CH1 thanks. That really does make sence.
I was thinking that she was wanting his approval so much, that that might make her offer him her wand. If that makes any sence
Besides you saying it wrong it's: *manor* not mansion
Because she was already taking Voldemort's wand, if you get my drift.
Voldemort probably wouldn’t take it because he liked bellatrix more and knew she was more powerful and he also wanted to punish luscious for losing the prophecy and other things
The Wizarding World, at least from my perspective, has a remarkable capacity to compartmentalize and forget. If the name was not spoken, then perhaps all that awfulness never happened or was confined to the grim past. This only ensured worse to come, and we could even speculate, Tom somehow tapped into the fear surrounding his name to make re-embodiment easier. In my own post-series fic, at Harry's suggestion, Kingsley directs that all actions taken against fugitive followers of Voldemort be arrested as being part of 'The Rebellion of Tom Riddle' - reducing this vast figure of terror to a bitter boy playing a word game for his ego's sake.
Exactly what led to Voldemort's rise, they didn't even bother preparing for another dark wizard to appear and one showed up in just a few years after Grindelwald was defeated.
I was a latecomer to HP, first the movies and then I read the books - this was all a few years back (though a few years after Potter came out). Despite the *ahem* shortcomings of it's creators I'm enjoying your videos. And I really enjoy your voice, I could listen to you read a phone book. So please keep it up. And yes, I have subscribed. Thank you for your content during this time.
Good theory video. While there was a taboo on his name during the second war, I don't think there was during the first. Mostly I think people were just really afraid to say it. Because if they had jinxed the name or tabooed the name before, it doesn't go away unless the person who cast the spell died. He didn't die that night. He was disembodied.
Thank you so much 😊
You always take the exact topic that interests and confuses me in the books!
I always thought that fear of the name Voldemort was a reference to "der Führer" which is how Hitler was called. I remember that, when I studied German, my class had a meal together, and one of my classmates sat at the head of the table and said "Ich bin der Führer!" and our teacher immediately told him that wasn't a nice thing to say... I guess it's a dark part of history they prefer not to talk about!
I feel like you're forgetting something here; If the Taboo is linked to the Tattoo in anything other than the T and double O, how did the Snatchers use it to find the trio? They made it very, very clear that the Fenrir Grayback is not a Death Eater, and he was the only one of note in the group that first happened upon the trio when Harry lets the name slip.
I like the video but I think the root cause is very simple: saying his name indicates that you boldly defy Voldemort and are prepared to risk your lives or your loved ones if the death eaters don’t believe you’d join his side.
People used Grindelwald’s name quite casually yet he was also an extremely powerful dark wizard and ought to have been feared in his time.
Is it just me or does Micheal Corner look sort of like young Severus Snape.
rowling herself stated there was no taboo on the name during the first war more likely it was the death eaters killing or torturing people who spoke the name ( remember in the dept of mysteries how bellatrix was angry that harry had dared speak his name) that was the true cause of why people never would speak it between the first and second wars, after all there were known death eaters still on the lose. it was never stated that i can remember but i have always felt voldemort put the taboo on his name because he realized that harry potter was not afraid to speak his name and it was a good way to track him down. anyone else caught by the snatchers or death eaters after saying his name was merly a bonus
He didn’t call him Tom because was scared he did it because he seen who he really was
I thought that Voldemort also had a tracer spell on his name so that whenever someone said it, Voldemort would know where they are?
The need to make a movie about tom riddle or that time when he was in power
Half blood prince is the book of Voldemort -
Taboo cant be linked to the dark mark cuz no one that appeared when Harry said the name had a dark mark.... they had to go to the Malfoy's Estate ....
Another great video amazing collab with movieflame also 😉 waiting for the next 9 videos
I love this channel so much! You're definitely my favorite Harry Potter TH-camr! 🤩 What are your Patronuses? Mine is a rare one... An Abraxan Winged Horse
I feel sorry for the death eater who had to face Dumbledore when he spoke his name
Just discovered this channel and just got to say keep up the great work your a delight you definitely earned a subscriber
Voldemort never actually died died so maybe the taboo was always there (maybe weakened) but the kind of enchantments (lillys sacrifice and no idea how many protection spells on hogwarts which protected both students and school and who would attack an entire school with dumbledore as headmaster the only one voldemort ever feared) prevented them reaching the area since they knew the general area of the Dursley house but not the precise house or street (harry used voldemorts name when talking to the Dursleys). Maybe they knew the area for this reason but lillys protection was too strong.
Maybe some were afraid because they could have had a moment that was related to Voldemort so they had flashbacks every time someone said his name, so they didn’t want flashbacks of the event that scared them so they just don’t bring it up!
Wash Your Hands 😷😷
Thanks For Keeping Me Entertained During Quarantine💯🙏🏾
It’s kinda funny how 2 things could’ve prevented the whole thing of Voldemort which is putting the Restricted Section somewhere else and at least one Wizard or Witch using a Gun.
18 seconds ago good job dean I love this video!!
The person who disliked is a muggle
From a slytherin 🐍🐍
Just a friendly reminder Merlin was a Slytherin.
@@Kirisage what are you trying to say?
But what about the muggleborns that weren't raised to fear Voldemorts name??? Harry even said in a dialogue that he never knew to not say it. Why would every muggleborn start to fear Voldemort just by hearing about him? You can't tell me that Harry was the only one!
Why they did not named him by his real name? - Tom Riddle,like when Albus Dumbledore calls him in Ministry?
Because most people didn’t know about his past except for his teachers and some of his classmates.
Video suggestion: The story of the wizarding world of Harry Potter at the universal studios parks is that the Ministry of Magic has decided to open the wizarding world to muggles for one day. What would happen if the Ministry decided to do this within canon? P.S. love your videos!
But most of the snatchers didn't have dark marks, they just wanted the gold and weren't in Voldemort's inner circle. They wouldn't have been alerted if the name was used
The Dark Lord puts the dark mark onto each deatheater, it was like a magical silent alarm and each deatheater could feel it and instantly knew where they would be so they could come to serve him almost instantly.
The taboo being linked to the dark mark might have been the case in the first wizarding war but certainly not the second. None of the snatchers that caught Harry, Ron and Hermione were deatheaters save Greyback but he was noted to lack a dark mark.
Cowards: The one who must not be named
Normal: You know who, dark lord

Well except for Dumbledore because Dumbledore just didn’t care about the danger of his name.
The books can be read on a couple levels. Voldemort is kind of a kid-friendly Hitler. I read the books as an adult and it was easy to see comparisons between Voldemort and his regime and despots that really existed or perhaps exist now in smaller venues.
I always thought part of the thing with the name was that the taboo kept adults, who should have been 100% opposing Voldemort, in denial and out of action. The kids had the guts to take a stand and oppose him. We see some similar things with Political Correctness today which are aimed at silencing discussion and free thinking.
Wtf was that last part?? Just bc you can't be openly racist without consequences doesn't mean you're being "silenced"
@@daphys_computershow2054 WTF to you! Political correctness is not only about race. It does indeed stifle and silence discussion. Concerning race, without open expression, true racists find fellowship in private where they can build their own narratives, have strength in numbers and create an us-against-them solidarity. Everything should be openly discussed and explored.
@@annalisette5897 yeah that's not political correctness works. Holding ppl accountable for the shit they say is not silencing anyone. And racists will always exist in dark corners, but now they're more cautious to how they talk to, isolating them.
you don't have to be a genius to combat this. Form a posse of Aurors, have one of them speak Voldemort's name and ambush the Death Eaters that appear
I feel like people didn’t/ wouldn’t say his name out of sympathy for those lost, though I’m sure many people did for that reason. I think it was more so due to the trauma of the first war. Most people were terrified by the name or at the very least anxious and paranoid, even when he was mentioned as “you know who” many would become nervous and uncomfortable. Of course I may be wrong, but I wanted to give an alternative point of view.
Lord Voldemort: entrepreneur and innovator.
I think that none of the snatchers that came to capture the Trio in the tent during deathly hallows had a dark mark though :/ wasn't that mentioned when they brought them to Malfoy Manor?
Edit: I am an a-hole I know, always finding something wrong in the video and nitpicking. HPF hire me as an editor please?
in the shit movies yes. in the books they get captured by fenrir greyback and a bunch of death eaters.
@@Dunkelelf3 grayback was a filthy half-breed. He wasn't awarded the honor of having a dark mark. XD
This is a passage right after the Trio was captured, which implies clearly that Grayback was the highest ranking among the Snatchers and that he didn't have a dark mark: ""They all took several steps backwards, stunned by what they had done. Harry, still fighting to remain present inside his own splitting head, could think of nothing to say: fragmented visions were breaking across the surface of his mind - … he was gliding around the high walls of the black fortress - No, he was Harry, tied up and wandless, in grave danger - … looking up, up to the topmost window, the highest tower - He was Harry, and they were discussing his fate in low voices - … time to fly - ‘… to the Ministry?’ ‘To hell with the Ministry,’ growled Greyback. ‘They’ll take the credit, and we won’t get a look in. I say we take him straight to You-Know-Who.’ ‘Will you summon ’im? ’Ere?’ said Scabior, sounding awed, terrified. ‘No,’ snarled Greyback, ‘I haven’t got - they say he’s using the Malfoys’ place as a base. We’ll take the boy there.'
Harry thought he knew why Greyback was not calling Voldemort. The werewolf might be allowed to wear Death Eater robes when they wanted to use him, but only Voldemort’s inner circle were branded with the Dark Mark: Greyback had not been granted this highest honour. Harry’s scar seared again - … and he rose into the night, flying straight up to the window at the very top of the tower - ‘… completely sure it’s ’im? ’Cause if it ain’t, Greyback, we’re dead.’ ‘Who’s in charge here?’ roared Greyback, covering his moment of inadequacy. ‘I say that’s Potter, and him plus his wand, that’s two hundred thousand Galleons right there! But if you’re too gutless to come along, any of you, it’s all for me, and with any luck, I’ll get the girl thrown in..""
I've always wondered why he chose that name. Does Voldemort have some kind of historical or symbolic meaning behind it?
It's and anagram of his real name Tom Marvolo Riddle. Or maybe he spoke French and thought Voldemort would be cool
In French its something like Vol - De - Morte and it means something like being away from death, and also J.K. Rowling said that name Voldemort is from French language
Vol= steal or flight, de=of/from mort=death in french. So, stealing from the death, flight from death
Yes it does. It is explained in The Chamber of Secrets film and book. Voldemort is a rearrangement of his full name. Tom Marvolo Riddle. When this is rearranged, it says 'I am Lord Voldemort'.
French meaning may be : flight of death
All I hear at 1:00 is that hilarious laugh he does after he says "Harry Potter is dead" can't get over that one :D
I don't think there was a taboo in the first war. One would have known that. I guess it is only fear - like he said himself once: He aimed at becoming so feared that oen wouldn't even dare speak his name.
Dumbledore said that he never saw any reason to fear speaking the name of Voldemort in the first chapter of the first book of Harry Potter. This theory doesn’t work at all.
If there had been any good reason to avoid speaking the name Dumbledore would’ve known about it.
Personally I think the taboo on his name is similar to how the trace works
Not only does it break protective enchantments but it sends a kind of signal to the death eaters. Similar to your method only it would link to the snatchers too which is how they find the tiro after Harry says the name
Intro: "Hey everyone, I hope you're all staying safe and healthy at the moment,"
Me: *Casually sick and having schoolwork due.*
The Truth behind Tom Riddle's self-given Name Lord Voldermort is the Association to the Similar Villain of the WWII, Adolf Hitler. People did not speak his Name either during those Days, other than his followers, which called him Lord and Leader (Herrscher und Führer => german). The first and second Wizarding War is also associated with the WWI and WWII...
But why would he make a cool name like Voldemort if he won't let people use it and why don't he just use the words You-Know-Who to track people since most people use it
He had a tracker on his name that's how in movie 7th they found them at the top of the hill
I think it’s like those situations where you might be talking about someone and for some reason you feel like they can hear you even though you know they can’t. I’m sure even during and after those things really came to light of people being killed it really made that feel even more real.
Yeah, I always thought the track/ban on the name Voldemort came after the ministry had fallen. And the reason for it was simply that only those who were willing to stand up to Voldemort were willing to say the name outloud.
Some wizards study potions, some transfiguration, this channel studies "stretching videos out to that sweet 10:01 mark"
I love when you say make yourself comfy.. don’t mind if I do.
I think them not speaking his name after his death was even worse for Voldemort because not only does he die physically, but he dies in everyone’s memories, which is ultimately a part of his greatest fear.
I just started watching your channel and I am really enjoying it.
What if snape havent told to voldermot the prophecy
My friends call me Dark Lord, but one calls me Voldy (she is a Luna Lovegood)
"Or for the brave souls, the dark lord"
Dumbledore: it was foolish to come here tomight tOm

Surely you can’t blame Voldemort for underestimating the power of love since he himself can’t feel love and hasn’t known it
