Etymology
Quidditch was invented by J.K. Rowling for the Harry Potter stories, and she has said the idea and the name came to her while travelling on a train. A helpful way to remember the word is to think of the short sound quid as a 'quick' or quirky name for a flying game. So Quidditch is the name of the broomstick sport in the books.
