That was a mouthful of a name. To Gareth it sounded much better to him that way than Kanna for some reason he was not sure about. Perhaps with the longer form it sounded more feminine to him and that tiny bit of femininity fit her pretty face. He stared at her face in silence, taking in her features before his gaze moved on her hair. He liked the colour of her hair. It was bright and shiny and...

What?

Realising what he was doing, the Slytherin quickly tried to block the thoughts of her being attractive. That was not funny. Not funny at all as he didn't really believe any girl around would be good enough for him. "German..." he repeated. Yeah, it obviously was a name of which origin he was not familiar with. "I see. But i don't think those sounded like nonsense to me. Music of life is pretty deep." and even though it was a made up name, Gary thought it had to have a meaning. Maybe she didn't know for sure what it referred to.

And she was asking for his name. Since he had sort of started to have a normal conversation with her, he supposed she could very well have his name. "It's Gareth." he said and no, he was not going to start talking about how he was called Gary by some. That was...meh. Of no importance.

Watching him carefully but casually, she noticed him, like she noticed many people, eying her hair. The bright red was a longstanding trait she had chosen, despite her status as a Ravenclaw. For as long as she had been attending Hogwarts, she had kept it bright punch-red. No one had ever complained.

Kanna let him speak, listening closely as she finally bit off the brittle end of the sugar quill, starting to eat away at it as it disintegrated. She took it out of her mouth to speak, as was only polite.

"It's very nice to meet you, Gareth," she said with a nod of her head. Repeating the name helped people remember, and since she knew lots of people, it could never hurt to use a few trick to associate the name with the face. It wasn't just something she was saying, either. It was very nice to meet him. She loved to meet new people. Especially when other people might be easily scared away by... well... by stances like Gareth had taken with her.
