Bonnie Wrightalready has a Hogwarts House in mind for her little one.

“I think my husband is a Hufflepuff,” Wright, 33, tells PEOPLE of husbandAndrew Lococo. “He doesn’t quite understand the importance of him being sorted. I’ve sorted him in Hufflepuff.”

“And I thought Elio was a Hufflepuff, but I’m not sure now. I’m hoping he’ll be a Slytherin, but I also can’t project,” adds the actress, whose character was placed in Gryffindor. “I’ve got to let him be himself.”

Although her son is still so young, Wright says she already has plans on how to introduce him to the iconic franchise.

“People have done 5 years old [which] seems to be a good age to start reading the books and showing bits of the films,” Wright says. “I’m counting down my four years now.”

“I’ve got to wait, but I can’t wait. I mean, I love having them read out loud. I love the audiobooks. So let’s hope he’s a fan.”

The new mom wrote a heartfelt — and what she referred to as “hormonal emotional extra long” —caption announcing their son’s birth date, as well as sharing gratitude for those who assisted her family during their birth “journey.”

Lynch added a piece ofHarry Pottertrivia, calling out that Elio Ocean shares his birthday with a popular character, “ps. Hermione’s birthday twin, I’m sure you’ve been told!!”

Her onscreen brother,James Phelps, also commented on her post. “Huge congratulations!!”
