Corvus Lestrange I

Corvus Lestrange I was a wizard and a member of the pure-blood Lestrange family. He married a woman named Heloise Beaufort and fathered at least a son also named Corvus.

Etymology
Corvus is Latin for "raven", probably from the Greek κόραξ  (korax, "raven"). Corvus is the family name of medium to large black birds, including crows, ravens, jackdaws, and the like. This is likely an allusion to the dark nature of the Lestrange family, as such birds have often been harbingers of doom in folklore.

The name Lestrange echoes the French phrase l'étrange, literally "the strange one". In Old French, estrange means "foreigner". The surname may allude to English journalist Roger L'Estrange, who was known for opposing religious toleration and for being involved in plots against the government of William and Mary, similar to the Lestranges' intolerance about blood purity and involvement in the Death Eaters organization.
