Can any Potter-fans remember whether the formula "Auror [Moody]" is actually used in the novels, as opposed to being a fandom coinage?

I've a strong suspicion I've seen a sentence in one of the books which lists a group of people and ends with "...and Aurors [ ] and [ ]." I think in that case it's being used purely descriptively, as you might say "and batsmen Fowler and Pietersen" but it may have led to confusion, along the lines of "You're nutters, the pair of you".

That seems like a plausible explanation of how it gained fanon currency. Oh for a searchable e-text (of course, I could just buy one).

Oh, I think I know where you mean. It's a list of people killed by death eaters in book 6 or 7.

I think you're right about it being a description and not a title.

Ah - perhaps it's an announcement on the resistance radio station in book 7? That would fit the format I'm visualising. Casualties and missing.
