Come to think of it, there's also Pansy Parkinson, Horace Slughorn, Rufus Scrimgeour, Ernie McMillan, Seamus Finnegan, Dean Thomas, Lee Jordon, Delores Umbridge, Adrian Pucey, Miles Bletchly, Marcus Flint, Theodore Nott and Millicent Bullstrode.

Oh well.

To be accurate, she did not receive a Hugo for writing the series. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire received the 2001 Hugo for best novel, and not without controversy.

I certainly could be wrong, but I'd be surprised if that's the reason for the name, since she JKR received the award in absentia.
