Oh I agree, and I believe I said so in my original post.  It could refer 
to anybody, though Harry would be the obvious thing we're intended to 
think, even as a 'red herring', if that title were used.  I was just 
saying that I, myself, would enjoy the parallelism of the boy who lived becoming the man who died, but there are many possibilities of course.
