Hi, all!

Quick question to all the British Harry Potter fans. Is Lupin's nickname spelled "Moony" or "Mooney" in the British text?

I just got a correction note on my Harry Potter quiz saying I misspelled "Moony". According to this player, it's spelled "Mooney". I just checked my book, and it is spelled "Moony" in the American text, but I wanted to check to see how it is spelled in the British text.

I was just going to tell this player they were wrong, but then I realized it could be spelled with an "e" in the British version. I just want to have all my information. If it's spelled with an "e" in Britain, then I may just change the intro to include that it has the American spelling.

Thanks!

no its still spelled moony, its only in the movies that it was spelled mooney as a kind of joke because one of the directors names was ron mooney or something... hope this helps
