Hi,
I´ve got a strange theory!
Did Lord Voldemort himself rearranged Severus Snape´s name? Why do
Dumbledore trusts Snape?
Even I´m not concerned of the so called Perseus Evans anagram theory
it´s still possible Snape is indeed Perseus Evans.
If we take a look at his memories from his early childhood (his father
is shouting at a his cowering mother), it seems Severus still had been
a little boy, maybe four or five years old? And at this very time he
had been Perseus Evans. So what could have happened to him?
Let me fantasy a little bit. His parents could have been relatives of
the Evans, who were Lily´s parents. So his parents were Muggles, too.
Maybe his father and his mother argued about young Perseus who
obviously had got magical powers, and maybe his father were shouting
at his mother because he was scared of it. "How is that possible, what
does it mean, the boy is weird!" Perseus didn´t understand the
conflict, so he was crying because he thought mummy and daddy didn´t
like him anymore. Than it could have been possible his parenst died in
a car accident. Not Harrys´s parents, but Perseus parents! He survived
and fleed from the place of horror, and maybe Voldemort somehow
realized that there is a little boy with strange magical powers. So he
captured the boy, rearranged his name into Severus Snape and the Evans
family couldn´t find the boy anymore.
Then Voldemort took the place of his parents, he maybe "helped"
Severus to forget them. Voldemort maybe organized for Severus a place
to live, maybe with the Malfoys? Now the little boy just had got one
identity back; the identity of Severus Snape. Later he wasn´t able
anymore to remember his true Muggle backgrund, he was concerned that
he must be a Pureblood. Maybe Lord Voldemort needed someone he could
play the father for, of which reason ever? That would explain why
Severus Snape had been deep in the Dark Magics before he started at
school.
When he met Lily Evans at school, it´s quite possible he started to
remember the name of Evans, even he never couldn´t find out the truth.
Years later, after school ( already an active Death Eater ) he got
better and better at Occlumency and Legilimency and his true memories
could have been come back into his consciousness? Maybe he started to
realize who he really was? Maybe he understood what Lord Voldemort had
done to him when he was a little boy? Maybe he went to Dumbledore and
let him come into his mind and soul?
Maybe therefore Dumbledore trusts him so much?
I know, I´m speculating too much, but it is a new theory I suppose,
isn`t it?
