Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore 

Albus Dumbledore. The only wizard Voldemort ever feared.
"Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore was cleverer than you", said Harry, "a better wizard, a better man."

Albus Dumbledore 

WARNING, SPOILERS:
Full name Albus Percival Wolfric Brian Dumbledore. Born around 1840-46, died 1997. Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, in the novels by Jo Rowling. Named for the Latin for white, and an Anglo-Saxon term meaning "bumblebee", as Rowling imagined the old man humming about the school. Headed the Order of the Phoenix in both its incarnations. Campaigned for the truth about the evil Voldemort to be known, but was unimpressed by his power and pretensions; addressed Voldemort simply as "Tom" (Marvolo Riddle) whenever they met. Killed for reasons Harry Potter does not at first comprehend, but as for the question of whether we see him again, hey, this is Hogwarts, remember? Recently outed by author Rowling as gay (!!! go Jo !!!); his greatest mistake was to fall in love with Gellert Grindelwald. Wise old man who has come by his wisdom in that hallowed academy, the School of Hard Knocks. Warm, friendly, fierce when necessary, had style, truly unforgettable. Played in the movies by the late great Richard Harris (years 1&2), and subsequently by Michael Gambon. At once among the finest wizards and finest gay characters to grace the pages of fiction.
Albus Dumbledore. The only wizard Voldemort ever feared.

"Exactly", said Dumbledore, beaming once more. "Which makes you very different from Tom Riddle. It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, page 245, Bloomsbury ed.

"You mean he was weak!", screamed Voldemort. "Too weak to dare, too weak to take what might have been his, what will be mine!"
"No, he was cleverer than you", said Harry, "a better wizard, a better man."
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, p. 592

Albus Severus Potter 

The son of Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley. He has one brother, James Potter (named after his late grandfather), and one sister, Lily Potter(named after her late grandmother). He is named after two late headmasters of the wizarding school, Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore, and Severus Snape, both of whom held close relationships with his father, Harry Potter. Last we heard, he was entering his 1st year of Hogwarts, and very worried that he might be placed in the Slytherin house instead of the preferred Gryfindor.
Man, i wish J.K. Rowling told us more about Albus Severus Potter before ending the series.

albuscarnitarianism 

Eating white meat, but not red meat. May or may not be subject to a little wiggle room depending on the person.

Taken from an amateur translation of Latin meaning 'white meat.' Coined because there was no other word for it.
I guess he's subscribed to albuscarnitarianism. Won't eat a steak to save his life now.
Hawaiian pidgin for: "all busted", "all busted up", or "all wasted".

Used to describe someone who drank too much or something that's in bad shape and isn't looking good.
