First impression I had, was that "Hallows" was a place.

Graveyards are often consecrated places, aren't they (not too sure 
about very many traditions)?  "Deathly Hallows" would be an apt, if 
unusual, epithet for a graveyard.

But, sure, it certainly does seem that it could refer to Godric's 
Hollow, where the deathly and hallowed deed took place.

And, yes, hallows = saints as in All Hallows Eve.  So, these would 
be "good" people, then, if indeed that's what the word in the title 
means.  Then, I get the feeling Deathly Hallows could be sort of anti-
Death Eaters.

I like this title.  It's nice and *dark.*

I wonder when Jo will tell us what the other possibilities were?
