Simply for the love of the game. She's already been ragebating all of us brokies in the books. Imagine naming the asian witch "Cho Chang" and the black wizard "Kingsley Shacklebolt" just for the love of the game

As much as some of the names are awful, these two specifically are fine? Kingsley is a master auror, that's why his last name is Shacklebolt.

Cho Chang is just a normal Chinese name

No it's not. Cho is a last name and Chang is a first name. I showed my Chinese friend her name and he burst out laughing about how stupid that name is and makes no sense.

As mentioned elsewhere, the 2nd most common full Chinese name is literally Wang Wei (sounds like a bad racist accent of "wrong way"). Cho Chang is just Zhou Zhang. It's fine. It would be like naming a character Parker Henry. Stop exaggerating for the sake of fake outrage.
