Roxanne Weasley is the daughter of George Weasley and Angelina Johnson. She has an elder brother, Fred, named after their late uncle.[1]
Etymology
Roxanne is an English spelling of the French name Roxane, which in turn comes from the Greek name Roxana, derived from the Persian Roshanak, meaning "bright" or "dawn". Roxana was the name of Alexander the Great's first wife.[2] Also, Roxanne is the name of a main character in Edmond Rostand's play Cyrano de Bergerac, who is the love interest of the eponymous hero.
