Although she writes under the pen name J.K. Rowling, pronounced like rolling, her name when her first Harry Potter book was published was simply Joanne Rowling.

Following her marriage, she has sometimes used the name Joanne Murray when conducting personal business. During the Leveson Inquiry she -
