I just did it, and managed 130/200... the thing that threw me was that I kept putting in names and having them not be recognized because they only get mentioned once, or not at all, or not enough! (Helena Ravenclaw among them! And Druella, Abraxas, both Greengrass sisters, both Lestrange brothers, a lot of my pet characters really...)
I was also surprised by how many/few times some characters were mentioned. Bellatrix only got five more mentions than Cho, what. o_O
I missed a lot of non-human characters (Grawp, Norbert, Sir Cadogan and the Fat Lady among them, though I got Crookshanks and several owls), some people who I legitimately have no idea who they are (Mr. Roberts? Albert Runcorn?) and then a good number that I think I would have remembered if I'd had more time and if my brain didn't immediately stop working under pressure (Madam Pince, Bathilda Bagshot, Gellert Grindelwald, Madam Ponfrey Beedle the Bard, etc, etc).
