Meet French-British actress Poppy Corby-Tuech. Yes that's her given name. Her full name is actually Poppy Colette Corby-Tuech but things got very complicated for the internet real quick. After the Fantastic Beasts official Twitter account began listing the cast of the upcoming 'Secrets of Dumbledore' film, the phrase "Poppy Corby-Tuech is Vinda" took on a life of its own.
For reference "Vinda" is a witch in the Harry Potter universe.
Here's the original tweet.
From there, madness ensued.

People were so taken aback that some were referencing the 1996 blockbuster smash hit, Matilda.

We'd like to thank the internet for keeping us entertained. While also thanking rich white people for continuing to giving their children absolutely ridiculous names. As long as these two things can continue to coincide, we will never run out of content.
And maybe that's what this was all about. Maybe our truest friend was the content we made along the way.
