Patrick Fincher was a Ravenclaw student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the 1990s. He played informal Quidditch matches with other students during the 1996–1997 school year.

Etymology[]

The name "Patrick" is from the Latin name Patricius, which meant "nobleman". This name was adopted in the 5th-century by Saint Patrick, whose birth name was Sucat. He was a Romanized Briton who was captured and enslaved in his youth by Irish raiders. After six years of servitude he escaped home, but he eventually became a bishop and went back to Ireland as a missionary. He is traditionally credited with Christianizing the island, and is regarded as Ireland's patron saint.
