Everyone voted for the naming of Harry and friends. So, now I give you James and Lily naming Harry…
"We're having a boy, James."
"Really?"
"No."
"Aw."
"I was kidding…"
"So we really are having a boy, Lily?"
"Yes."
"I already know what to name him!"
"Gee, let me guess."
"You'll never guess it."
"James."
"What?"
"No. I mean, you want to name him James."
"Oh. Uh, maybe."
"We're not naming him James, James."
"Well why not?"
"I don't want to!"
"He's bound to be a handsome, strapping young man. If he's going to be just like me he ought to have the same name."
"That's ridiculous. What if he has red hair?"
"Then I'll send him to live with the Weasleys. Ow! Don't slap me!"
"What's wrong with red hair?"
"Nothing, you're very beautiful with red hair."
"Humph."
"But anyway, did you have names ideas Lily?"
"Well James is a good idea, but for a middle name I think."
"What about his first name?"
"Walter?"
"Ugh."
"Thomas?"
"No. Dudley?"
"That's not funny."
"What was your sister thinking? The poor kid."
"Be serious, James."
"You want me to be Sirius? Okay; woof, bark, woof… Ow! You really do need to stop slapping me."
"That wasn't funny."
"Why are you smiling then, Lily?"
"Because you're still as immature as when we met."
"But, in all seriousness, do you have any other ideas?"
"Well there was another that I thought would be nice."
"And that is?"
"Harry."
"I like that one too, Lily."
"So we'll name him Harry James Potter?"
"Yes."
"Nice."
"Hey, Lilly?"
"Yeah?"
"I hope he has your eyes."
Oh shit, that last part. I'm tearing up a little. I hope you all enjoyed it. The Weasleys are next.
