LOL. You think Snape is more worthy of that title than Harry? I 
suppose under certain circumstances I would not wish that title on 
Harry at all, but I believe that JKR indeed means for us for Harry to 
be seen as prototype of DDM - ultimate loyalty and all that. IMO of 
course.

I mean, this is Harry's story, yes? First and foremost?

There is stupid IMO and there is stupid. It is completely 
unbelievable to me that Draco would not guess that Greyback would 
come not because he knows the name, but precisely because Draco 
threatens Borgin with the name - the leap to make from there is  not 
big for me.
