Possible titles for Book 7, "Harry Potter and the ..." Options

[Donna Rose]

So I've been having fun coming up with possibilities for titles...as someone said at some earlier point, JKR almost always names the books after some new person/place/thing that we haven't really heard about yet, so I recognize that this will at best be pure speculation and guessing fun, but why not? :)

some titles I've come up with that could have double meanings or could refer to any number of things...

Harry Potter and the Lion's Legacy (thinking of Godric Gryffindor here)

Harry Potter and the Lion's Den (thinking of Godric's Hollow, although "Lion's Den" sounds a bit ominous)

Harry Potter and the Auror's...something. Depending on where she takes the story, could be "Auror's Wand" or "Auror's Promise" or any number of things, and for some reason the "Auror" I am thinking of is either Harry's mum or dad...I wouldn't be surprised if one of them makes it into the title in some way.

Also, I personally think JKR will be avoiding such titles as "Last Battle" or "Final Encounter" or any of these types of things...she usually uses the title to introduce something from the wizarding world that is unfamiliar to us - which is also why I doubt it will be Harry Potter and the Hunt for the Horcruxes lol although that does have a ring to it I guess :)

Any other ideas? They can be as out in left field as you want lol some of mine are just purely me putting together words that could mean something in book 7.

There is currently a contest going on with The Guardian (see our article here) to see who can come up with the best title on Book 7, or who can come the closest - if JKR happens to give us a title before December 6th, which is when this contest ends - to the title, you can win a signed bookplate by JKR.

Because of this contest, I thought I'd bump this post up a bit.

Many seem to think that the word horcrux will be in the title for the 7th book. Some think it's too obvious. But, I happen to be one of those horcrux shippers. The reason I think this is b/c JKR has said herself that the 7th book is the second half of the 6th book. But, I could very well be wrong.

There have been many titles guessed at with the word horcrux in it - either the battle for or the quest for the horcruxes.

Mine is a little different (and I submitted this prior to looking at this thread).

Harry Potter and the Death of the Horcruxes

I think this title leads to many different speculations. What if Harry (or his scar) is a horcrux - could this mean he is to die as well? I mean, if JKR were to release a title similar to this, there would be much speculation about the horcruxes...and who/what is going to die.

Give us your ideas, and also submit your guess to The Guardian here.
