Like all books/movies/games etc that are so named, you will have to overcome the copyright issue....while you're idea would be popular, you probably can't use anything that is named in the harry potter series unless thge author is feeling very generous...wouldn't that be wonderful. :)

Firstly, this should be in map ideas, secondly as cairns said, copyright. Make sure you get that before you do any major work on the map.

Anyway, good luck

it may also not be as much as an issue with the author as with Warner Bros. (the movie company that the copyrights were sold to)
