there must be some really really good reason for Lily to basically 
enter Hogwarts under a false pretense of being a muggle born.  If, 
perhaps, she had a "bad name" that Dumbledore or whoever didn't want 
her associated with or stereotyped by, claiming to be muggle born 
would explain why no one knew her "new name."

I've heard this kind of discussion from several boards although 
I've never taken much thought of it. 

The interesting thing about this exchange is the possible connection 
to the thread #44583  "Harry's Relatives: his Uncle Voldemort and 
his sister Hermione"(in this group) about He Who Must Not Be Named's 
possible family relationship to Harry. In that discussion it is 
posited that the Potters were hiding precisely because You Know Who 
was seeking to kill them because they were his relatives.

It's a short exchange, however I need to review the whole history of 
Riddle as from GoF.  

Of course this could just all be a flint.
