Hogwarts Dorms

The Hogwarts Dormitories are unlike any other school's dorms. Schools such as Ilvermorny base their dorm system on school years and genders. In an attempt to unify the Hogwarts houses, one student from each house is placed in a dorm. They remain separated by gender but unlike other schools, the houses are unified by dorm. Using the Hogwarts system, the school houses are able to get know each other better and friendships tend to form between the houses.

Students who choose not to identify with either gender are given the opportunity to choose which of the genders they would like to dorm with. If they wish, they can dorm with other students who also choose not to identify with either gender. If they choose the latter, their dorms will not be restricted to age levels and houses will only be required if there are four students with different houses.

Example
At Hogwarts, one Gryffindor, one Hufflepuff, one Ravenclaw, and one Slytherin make up a dorm. They are always listed in that order to.

Example:
Gryffindor

Hufflepuff

Ravenclaw

Slytherin

Each dorm number gets a name. Boys dorms are named after types of birds while girls are named after types of trees or woods.
