Potterheads

Boy-wizard devotees

Potterheads are devoted fans of the Harry Potter book and film series.

The term combines Potter with -head, a suffix for enthusiasts (like deadheads or gearheads).

Potterheads know the wizarding world intimately—houses, spells, characters, lore—and often identify with a Hogwarts house: I'm a Potterhead, Ravenclaw through and through.
