X-men (first one) question about Rogue and Magneto

I watching X-men and thought of something that has probably been posted but I couldn't find it.
How did Magneto know about Rogue?

I'm not sure if it was explained or not but I assumed that he read about her almost killing her boyfirend in the paper or something and he figured it was worth a shot to see what she could do.

The original plan for the comics was for Mystique to be Nightcrawler's father. (For a while in the comics, it was hinted that Mystique was in a relationship with a mutant female named Destiny, though they never came right out and said she was lesbian/bisexual.)

Slightly off topic, but what I never understood in the first movie was why this girl named "Marie" suddenly started to call herself "Rogue." If I ran away and needed a new name I'd pick something like "Jack" or "Eric."

To bad Rogue and Leech didn't hook up. They could suck each other's powers...and other stuff.

Or Rogue and Bobby could have got it on while Leech watched.

Could Leech have beaten Jean? Walk up to her and make her powerless.

Doubt it. His range seemed to only be a few feet.

I always assumed Magneto had spies either emplaced or that Mystique would make frequent trips to the school in various forms and keep him apprised of new X-developments.

I completely agree. Are you telling me somebody couldn't design her a special suit with a hole in it? They have mutants who can do just about everything else. So she has to wear gloves, big deal.
