Albus Severus Potter

Harry bounced his niece on his knee, smiling as the three-month old baby gurgled. She had been birthed in early January, and the young girl was loved by the world. "Isn't she adorable?" He asked his six-months pregnant wife.

"Not as adorable as James," Ginny stated, for the sake of the toddler that was bashing blocks of wood together.

The brown-haired toddler looked up at the mention of his name, and grinned, his blue eyes sparkling. "I more a-dor-ble!"

"What should our new child be called?" Harry asked his wife.

"Ice-cream!" James exclaimed.

The loud noise caused the baby in his arms to start crying, and Harry looked startled. Ginny took the unfortunate baby out of his arms, and began singing her a lullaby. As the baby drifted to sleep, Ginny whispered, "Albus. He was your mentor, and protector. Also, he was smart, so our child could be blessed with his intelligence."

"What if it's a girl?"

"Harry," his wife started gently.

"Dammit!"

That woke the baby up, and Rose started crying again. The red-headed beauty groaned, before singing to the young human again. "How about Severus for a middle name?" He suggested, hesitantly.

"Severus?" She whisper-shouted.

"Yes. In the end, he was loyal, brave and on our side."

"Fine," she sighed, but inside a wicked grin had plagued her. The potions master would have hated it...
