The Half-Blood Prince

[harryfan]

It is not Neville. This is what dumbledore said that proves that Neville is a Pureblood. "But he may have chosen wrong!" Said Harry. "he might have marked the wrong person!" He chose the boy that he thought most likely to be a danger to him," said Dumbledore. "And notice this, Harry. He chose, not the pureblood(refering to Neville) but the Half-Blood, like himself. Ok Besides Neville, Harry, Voldermort, and Tom Riddle (who has been proven time and time again that he is One with Voldermort), and Mark Evans, Who do you think the Half-Blood Prince

I'll let you know when the book has been released, and I've read it.

[harryfan]

Wow what a great answer bot U ahead of me! Ok Mrlxolite, is that your name!!! And Moonhead this is just a speculation message board, no need to get literal here!!! But I guess thanks for the answers anyway?

Godric Gryffindor is the HBP, and thats all I'm going to say on that!

[Phoenixashes]

To continue, my theory is that the HB in the title stands for Godric standing up and fighting for the rights of the HB back in his day. During his time royalty would not have been as uncommon as it is today. Also, I feel that the title hints at the relationship between Harry and Godric. ie Harry's ancestry The key to defeating the heir to Slytherin, in my opinion, will be the heir to Gyffindor. To throw in another twist I believe that this heritage will come from Lily's side. Godric will have the same "eyes" as the rest of the family.

[pippenzgirl]

suppose snape has an iligitamate son. just a theory

[war_machine]

Its got to be Hagrid!

[Hermes]

Godric Gryffindor

[jujujing]

there are clues in book 2. but personally i think its hagrid.

[Dragon_Rose]

My vote is for Hagrid, Dumbledore, Godric Gryfindor, any relations from Dumbledore, and most unusually any relations from Voldemort himself. A weird idea I have is a ghost, centaur, spider, merpeople, or some other creature, we should definitely see either some new ones or some revamped old ones.

I don't think it will be Dumbledore because he doesn't really ned a higher status.  Everyone already like worships him.

But as for my guess... I think that it could be Dean Thomas.  In the books it doesn't go into a lot of background on him, but on www.jkrowling.com, I found something that said his father left his family when he was little.  Then, when he got his Hogwarts letter, his mom thought that Dean's father might have been a wizard.  But as for who his father is?  The question is still unanswered.

i think ginny is the prince because if u really thinka bout it, she isnt much like the other weasleys, shes not open.  also, jk rowling said neville matchured a lot during the 5th book and chances are he is gonna start to do things differently and see things differnetly which might pit him against harry, just a thought, not a prediction. plus neville doesnt have to half blood, i think hes acting less of himself and that what its refering to in "half blood".  Luna lovegood is gonna be huge in this book too. thats y shes introduced. Godric Grinfyndor is dead! its not him, its always the perosn u overlook

[potterfan3]

ok i said this before on the other one trying to find out the hbp but now i have time to go into in a bit more detail; Dobby! think about dumbledore said. "kreacher bound by incatations of his kind could not leave the house without permission" but Dobby could warn Harry without the malfoys permission so perphaps he is not a full house-elf enabling him to break the incantations at certain times half-human? half-goblin? maybe or else y would she (jk) put so much emphaisis on an (elf he is almost a main caracter!) and it would be the most unexpected thing whitch she always seems to pull ou t the bag

[Polo40291]

I think maybe rowling is trying to throw us off. I belive that malfoy is really a half blood because of his mother but his mother never told lucius because she feared he wouldn't love her or somthing. Due to the whole flower name thing I think that maybe Petunia, lilly and Narcisa are sisters with a muggle parent and petunia is either a squib or just wants to live a normal life and she never told vernon for the same reason as why narcisa didn't tell lucious. The whole prince thing comes in place to the favt that maybe Lucius is related to sallazar slytherin. Half blood+Heir to sallazar=Half blood prince. but it kind of doesn't make sence do to the fact that Draco being the heir of sallavar slytherin would have been mentinoned in hpacos.

[whizzwhee;]

i have just finished reading the Half Blood Prince, so DON'T READ THIS IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS!!

 

Snape is the half-blood prince, and he murders Dumbledore! So I guess none of you were right :P

[Abadabz]

It's Snape

[Abadabz]

Snape's father is called "Something" Prince, he is also a half blood, as his mother was a muggle. So he is the half-blood prince
