Jacintha Drulov
The surname suggests the necessity of wiping the "drool off" the gentlemen's chins.
Lady Quethlock
???
Zhenski Tzrnogorski Institut
A little puzzle. Pronounced, the name is Croatian/Serbian. As written, it appears to be transliterated from Russian (Serbo-Croatian generally does not get transliterated at all). I wonder if the garble of languages betrays that the institute is phony. The name translates as "Montenegrin Female Institute." --Volver 08:09, 21 January 2007 (PST)

Baden-Powell
Pronounced BAY-den POLE (other branches of the family say POOL). British officer who after service in the Boer Wars founded the Boy Scouts.
Applied Idiotics
I suggest this is a minor theme of AtD. Every couple of chapters we have a reference to someone learning to act like an idiot (never a fool, a zany, an imbecile, a twit—always an idiot). Is there a connection to the notion of the "holy fool" here? --Volver 08:17, 21 January 2007 (PST)
Chipping Sodbury
A real town in the west of England, birthplace of J. K. Rowling. Throughout AtD "sod" is a derogatory name for sodomite, homosexual.
