hi, i'm new to this board but.. my friends and i have noticed 
something, i'm not sure if it has been discussed on here yet but.. 
here it is:

look at the black family tree:
(i've included a link: http://www.hp-lexicon.org/black-family-
tree.html)

we have: Bellatrix, Andromeda, Narcissa, and Nymphadora.

all of which are names of flowers.

bellatrix - french flower, flower medium, double, unicoloured. 
Corolla with for irregular rows of petals. White petals with soft 
flesh-pink decoloration or white petals with red streaks (RHS 27C, 
ORANGE GROUP) towards the centre. Flowering period: March-April. 
Obtained from the cross "Rosa simplex" with "Pomponia semiplena" 
(however it is genetically engineered) 

Narcissus - aka the daffodils, they are the cheeriest flowers and 
bloom in early spring

Andromeda - Andromeda polifolia (Andromeda glaucophylla)(Bog 
rosemary) Bog rosemary is threatened in the state of Connecticut. 
Despite the name, it is not related to the herb rosemary

Nymphadora - commonly known today as the water lilly.  the water lily 
was a sign of daytime and goodness rising from the bad things.

*bellatrix, Narcissus, Anromeda are also constellations seen in the 
NIGHT time.

so it appears there is a tradition in the black family of naming the 
females after flowers.  and that Nymphadora (tonks) is also goodness, 
like sirius, she has not followed in the normal Black family 
traditions of pureblood, etc.

Harry's mother and aunt, are also named after flowers.  Lilly and 
Petunia.  Is there a connection here?  could they too be related to 
the blacks!?  COULD HARRY BE RELATED TO THE BLACKS!?
