Maybe in 10 years when the fandom has died down some I would like it better as a real person name. I love HP but I wouldn't want to saddle my child with a name so closely associated with a book/movie/song etc...
Manderley (nickname Manda) was on the short list of names for my daughter but didn't for the same reason.
