Etymology
Peverell: Unknown

Ignotus: Ignotus is derived from the Latin word for "unknown", which would fit Ignotus, seeing as he received the invisibility cloak from Death.

Antioch: Possibly derived from the capital city of Syria in early Christianity. It is also an English form of the name Antiochus, which is the Latinized form of the Greek name Antiokhos.

Cadmus: Cadmus was a Greek mythological character. Cadmus was said to have founded Thebes and introduced the Phoenicians to the Greeks and thus, founded the Greek alphabet.
