Hermione Jane Puckle instead of Hermione Jean Granger.

J.K. Rowling changed the surname very early on as she felt 'Puckle' didn't suit Hermione. Hermione's middle name was not changed until after the fifth book was published and Rowling realised she has given the middle name 'Jane' to Dolores Umbridge. Not wanting Hermione to have a connection to Umbridge, Rowling changed her middle name to Jean.
