At one point JKR said that she had up to three titles in mind for the 
seventh book, and now we know the one she chose - but might the ones 
she did not choose offer interesting clues? Following is an excerpt 
of an article at wizardnews.com that may offer some interesting 
information:

Excerpt:

Meanwhile, El Cronista de Salem from HarryLatino.com has done some 
research into the patents archives at patent.gov.uk and has 
discovered some interesting facts.

On December 5, 2006, "The Deathly Hallows" was registered by Field 
Fisher Waterhouse, interestingly, without the "Harry Potter and", 
possibly so as not to draw attention.

However, on the same day, the same party also registered these 
titles: "The Deadly Veil" (not Deathly) and "The Heart of Ravenclaw."

Is it possible these are the other two titles that JK said she was 
considering last month? If so, it's possible they shed some light 
into what happens in the course of Book 7.

However, it's also possible that they were not under real 
consideration as titles and they mean nothing at all.

(Potential spoilery stuff above)


At any rate, hmmmm - so, assuming there is merit to the article, the 
veil may indeed play a role in the last book. And Ravenclaw's Heart - 
tantalizing! So what does everyone else think?
