JP here:
 
A thought just occured to me... correct me if I'm wrong but, isn't Dick the nickname for Richard? Which in turn is associated with the Lion...(British Royalty) which in turn is a cat... in which Jo has given in her website that clue that is associated with lions? (not to mention the Gryffindor Mascot) so 
I think that Dick is the Half-Blood Prince!
 
Thoughts? Reactions? Comments anyone?
