The twins may have been inspired by the Tarleton brothers in Gone with the Wind. They all fell in love with Scarlett, and Fred Weasley's girlfriend Angelina Johnson in Harry Potter became George's wife after Fred died.

The novel Gone with the Wind is set in Atlanta and a nearby plantation, and describes the life of southerners in the United States before and after the Civil War. Based on the lingering love between Scarlett and Rhett, it successfully reproduces the civil war led by Lincoln and the social life in the southern United States.
