Ronald Bilius Weasley’s name refers to his status as Harry’s sidekick.
Ron’s name very much defined his personality and position in the books. The name “Ronald” is an anglicized name derived from the Old Norse name “Rögnvaldr,” which refers to a ruler’s adviser. Whereas “Weasley,” it sounds a lot like “weasel,” which isn’t a popular animal, which is sort of like Ron’s personality. The not so popular boy who is the sidekick of the boy who lived.
Hermione Jean Granger’s name is more a reflection of her parents than her own personality.
The name “Hermione” was taken from William Shakespeare’s “A Winter’s Tale”. Rowling told the readers that her name was a reflection of her parent’s personality, a pair of dentists who wanted to showcase their wit.
Whereas “Granger” is a somewhat common English and French name, an occupational name that refers to a farm worker who dealt with grain. It is said that Rowling also considered the name “Puckle” as Hermione’s last name which means “devil” but we all can agree that Hermione was not even close to that.
