I really liked something, Jen Reese, had said a short time after we 
found out the name of the sixth book. Instead of half blood prince 
maybe it is the "prince of the half bloods". When I saw this 
statement I immediately thought yes, this is the best title for a 
background book of all the characters, most of which are half blood. 
But who then would be best suited for the position as the prince of 
the half bloods? Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore.  Where did 
a common muggle-type name such as Brian come from? It appears that at 
some point in time Albus's bloodline may have been tainted with the 
disgraceful muggle blood, which would make Albus himself a half 
blood. I do feel that Albus is the heir of Godric Griffindore who 
could be seen as the king to Albus's possible prince status.  
Slytherin-full blood, Griffindore-half blood, Ravenclaw-possible 
squib parentage (seeing as she represents book knowledge), Hufflepuff-
muggle born. 

Albus appears to be the savior of many who reside at the school under 
his protection like Hagrid who is half-giant or Lupin who is half 
blood and werewolf. Albus has also been called a muggle lover and 
has, unlike his fellows, followed the muggle news. Albus appears to 
be well versed in his muggle awareness, acceptance and protection for 
the half bloods who find comfort in the safe haven of his castle.
