I don't know if anyone has posted this idea before, and if they have 
I apologize.  With that said, here it goes...

Alot has been written in theory as to who is the HBP.  Alot has also 
been written regarding the lack of actual royal characters within the 
stories, and therefore the term "Prince" must refer to someone who is 
not actual royalty.

I was just watching HP and the Sorcerer's Stone on TV and a thought 
occured to me during the Great Feast scene at the beginning of the 
movie.  It is during this scene that Nearly Headless Nick aka Sir 
Nicholas is introduced.  The title of Sir would indicate that 
Nicholas is a knight.  The title of knight is (or in this case was)
bestowed by a royal entity.  Therefore, royalty does exist withen the 
context of the Harry Potter stories.  Of course, it could be mostly 
muggle royalty with a few wizards/witches thrown in for good 
measure...

Just a thought...
