Who is the HBP?

No: HPFGUIDX 103542

Since according to Jo the HBP is neither Harry nor Tom Riddle, here 
are my guesses and non-guesses:

Lupin - we don't know all that much about him, things are not be as 
they appear with him. 

I don't think its Justin from the standpoint of the HBP is just that 
a half-blood (half wizard/half muggle), Justin is muggle born (He 
stated it himself in CoS). 

I would looooove to say Draco, because that would just tick him off 
to no end to know that his mother is a squib passing off as a witch
(would that still make him a half blood though?). LMAO!! And Jo did 
say we would learn more about Draco's mother.

Could it be James Potter? We don't know anything about James's 
lineage. It has been said that James never had to get a well paying 
job because he inherited a great deal of wealth from his parents. 
Just because the title says Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince, 
it doesn't mean that HBP is actually still alive. There are several 
interviews backing up the fact that we will learn more about James, 
his parents (and Lily's)and where James came into being wealthy. 

Mark Evans, I believe was some poor kid that got sucked into a 
conspiracy theory and has nothing to do with any future books except 
maybe one day beat the hell out of Dudley.
