Emma lived in France until age five, and then moved to England. She was named after a close family friend (or relative, according to some sources) of the same name. A myth that she is known to her family as "Emma Watson (II)" came about through her being included in the Internet Movie Database under that name. The Roman numeral simply indicates that she was the second actress named Emma Watson in their database. She began showing interest in acting as soon as she entered school. At age seven, she won first prize in her year for a poetry recital in the school’s "Daisy Pratt" Poetry competition. She went on to co-star as Morgan La Fay in the school’s production of "Arthur: The Young Years" and then took one of lead roles in "The Happy Prince", even being cast as the angry cook in "Alice In Wonderland". However, she had no professional acting experience before being cast as Hermione in "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone".
Emma is an avid hockey player, having recently received her colors for the school team. She also enjoys skiing, fishing, rounders and netball, and likes to take part in all kinds of school activities including athletics and sculling.

• Emma has a sign outside her dressing room saying "Beware: Babe Inside".
• Aside from English, she also speaks French.
• Her favorite gadget is her iPod, and she texts her friends using her Nokia 3330.
• Emma Watson is also a fictional character in Jane Austen's unfinished novel The Watsons. Joan Aiken's 1996 novel Emma Watson: The Watsons Completed features characters from that work, and although it is often described as a "completion" of Austen's work, Aiken also rewrote the opening part. In an ironic twist, Jane Austen happens to be one of the favourite authors of J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter books, who named Mrs. Norris after one of Austen's characters.
