That's one of the first things I thought of when I found out that Sirius was 
Harry's godfather.  Even though Harry doesn't *have* to have a godmother, IMO 
that would make things more interesting.  And even if Harry doesn't have a 
godmother, I would still like to know who Lily's friends were.  Or was she 
like Hermione in that she didn't have any close female friends and only made 
friends with James and the other marauders?  I think this lack of information 
about Lily may be intentional because so few things in these books seem to be 
put there (or left out) randomly.  I've got plenty of theories, but I don't 
have any proof for any of them--any ideas?
