My interpretation is that the Patronus takes the form of a being/beast
that represents something from which you gain inner strength.  Harry
gets inner strength from his father's memory, so his Patronus is
"Prongs".  Tonks is in love with Lupin, to the point that she gets
emotional strength from him, so her Patronus is a wolf.
