What if the HBP is not someone who is a half blood wizard, just 
someone who champions the half bloods. Someone like DD.....My thnking 
is that Prince Charles is the Prince of Wales but he is not Welsh I 
do not believe....



Josephine now:

Ah... so you mean it might be more 'Prince *of the* Half-bloods'? OK. 
I like it. But I'm not sure it is really the right title to bestow on 
someone who is championing a cause. You would be more likely to say 
leader, or something less regal. But it could become someones title 
by the *end* of the book, once that person has done something for the 
half-bloods and gains the title from admiration. Nice thought though! 
I will go and ponder it now...
