"Asked about the name, Conan, O’Brien says it is not for mystery writer Conan Doyle, but for Gaelic priests. “Something so simple that you can’t make a nickname out of it."

—

Excerpt from a 1980 Boston Globe article about area high school senior Conan O’Brien, who had just won an award for short story writing.

“Can’t make a nickname out of it? We’ll see about that!” replied the universe.

Self-explanatory. I know a lot of people are gonna be like, “HEY, WHY ISN’T LENO A SLYTHERIN?!” but to me, out of all the working late night hosts, David Letterman most exemplifies the qualities of Slytherin house — cunning, wit, ambition, all that stuff. Leno is probably a Slytherin, all right, but he’s more like a Dolores Umbridge. The rest are completely obvious. Conan is clearly a Gryffindor — actually, he might even be a long-lost Weasley. Jon Stewart is the most Ravenclaw of them all; wit beyond measure is man’s greatest treasure and all that. And Jimmy Fallon is clearly a Hufflepuff. Come on.
