Potioncat:
I've seen some very good arguments for McGonagall and for Snape as 
Tonks's HoH. Snape and McG do have some traits in common and that sort 
of story of Tonks's could fit either of them. Hardly anyone ever 
suggests she's a Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw.I think JKR wrote Tonks's 
little story with the intent to drive us crazy.  Personally, I like the 
idea of Slytherin.

But, as for the first name bit--has Snape ever called other students by 
first names? The first names that I recall are: Igor, Draco, Tonks, 
Bellatrix and Narcissa. Seems like there was one or two more. Taking a 
good look at this list, all but one are Blacks!
