Now snazzzybird says:

That's exactly what I've been thinking -- Alice Longbottom as Lily 
Potter's best friend.  As a matter of fact, I first thought of this 
when considering the fact that, although we know a lot about Harry's 
godfather, Sirius Black, we don't even know the identity of his 
godmother.  Surely she would have made herself known to him by now, 
if she were able.  It occurred to me that Alice, Lily's co-worker and 
sister-in-arms, would be a natural choice.  Perhaps Lily was 
Neville's godmother as well.

--snazzzybird, who hopes the Longbottoms get restored to sanity 
somewhere along the line.
