That only necessarily means that their ''surname'' isn't Wilkins, nor was it 'Monica's' maiden name, it's still entirely possible that she kept their first names.

Deathly Hallows film

Where was it confirmed that he will be appearing the Deathly Hallows film? -Smonocco 16:28, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

Just added the reference. - Nick O'Demus 16:53, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

Move

Shouldn't this article be moved to "Mr. Granger", as Molly Weasley once referred to "Mr. and Mrs. Granger" in the early chapters of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows? Butterfly the rabbit 14:54, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

It was voted not to use honourific titles ("Mr.", "Mrs.", etc.). The vote result is here, and the policy is here. --Cubs Fan (Talk to me) 16:55, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
But what about "Mrs. Coles" and "Mrs. Scower", aswell as Madam Rosmerta, Madame Bletchley, Madame Glossy, Madam Borboleta, Madam Malkin, Madame Primpernelle, Madam Puddifoot, et cetera? Butterfly the rabbit 18:45, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
Those are the only way in which we know them. We do not their relation to the wizarding world in any other way. This article is about someone related to a main character, so it is named thus. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Hcoknhoj (talkcontribs).
Then what about "Granger" and "Granger's wife", since they were referred to as "Mr and Mrs Granger" many times rather than just Hermione's mother and father. -- Bee T. Are(Call me!!) 20:31, April 25, 2011 (UTC)
I'm fine with "Granger" and "Granger's wife". --  Seth Cooper  owl post! 11:38, April 26, 2011 (UTC)
If they had only ever been referred to as Hermione's mother and father, then it should stay as it is. But since they were called Mr. and Mrs. Granger several times, I think it should be Granger and Granger's wife. Anyone else have any thoughts? -- Bee T. Are(Call me!!) 12:30, April 26, 2011 (UTC)

There seems to be a convention toward titling articles on unnamed family members based on the relationship to the most prominent character. Thus we have "Luna Lovegood's mother" and not "Xenophilius Lovegood's wife." Starstuff (Owl me!) 21:16, June 17, 2011 (UTC)

Memories...

How do we know her parents got their memories back, even partially? For all we know she's now orphaned. This needs proof or to be revised. Green Zubat 21:11, July 22, 2011 (UTC)

J.K. Rowling has said that Hermione restored her parents' memories, and brought them home straight away. --  Seth Cooper  owl post! 21:42, July 22, 2011 (UTC)

Names

Just wondering, how do we know their names aren't actually Wendell and Monica? --Hunnie Bunn (talk) 21:58, October 17, 2013 (UTC)

In D.H. Hermione says: "I've also modified my parents' memories so that they're convinced they're really called Wendell and Monica Wilkins, and that their life's ambition is to move to Australia, which they have now done." I took that to mean those were not their actual names. -Smonocco (talk) 10:25, October 18, 2013 (UTC)

That only necessarily means that their surname isn't Wilkins, nor was it 'Monica's' maiden name, it's still entirely possible that she kept their first names.
