to the Malfoy family by marriage [via Narcissa]). Remember that there 
were deleted entries in the Black Family tree due to "defections" to 
the Good Guys. Narcissa [Narcissus] and Bellatrix [Belladonna] are 
flower names so Lily and Petunia would fit in with the style if their 
Mother were an excommunicated Black.

Narcissa literally translates to Daffodil.  Bellatrix literally means 
female warrior and is a star.  However, we seem to be thinking along 
similar lines because this has been discussed previously how strange 
that Andromeda and Bellatrix are stars/constellations while Narcissa 
is a flower.  Perhaps she is related to Lilly and Petunia-why does 
the Evans family chose to name people after flowers and the Black 
family after stars/constellations?  This may be red herring, but JKR 
spent an awful lot of time laying out the Black family tree and 
sharing with us the many thoughts on intermarriages so the pure blood 
lines would not die out-I think something will come of this.
