I know that each name in the saga has a related meaning but, not being a native English speaker, I have not been able to find out what "Hufflepuff" should mean.
What is the origin of the name "Hufflepuff" in the Harry Potter saga?
i read one site that suggested hufflepuff could be derived from two words huff (to breathe) and puff (type of pastry) so their theory is that it means to exude sweetness since the sorting hat talks about the founder of that house being good or sweet.
p.s. any other harry potter questions feel free to ask I have read every book 20+ times and any other resources i could get my hands on.

Reply:It's sort of a "fluffy" name--soft, easy, safe, not particularly active.
Reply:The person above is correct. "Huff" and "Puff" means hard work. Hufflepuff House is for hard workers.
