yea i really do think its him i kinda figured when i read hp6

I thought it was Mr R A Black but I'm not going to start believing rumours as they are rumours and I dont think JK would have let sumthing that vital to the final plot slip! It would be nice if it was him tho ... I hope hes as good looking as Sirius!!!!

OOO I figured!

Oh, it's still a rumor. I do think it's him too, because the Death Eater thing, and all. you can't be sure, though.

I doubt she would've done that...

I don't think JKR would have willingly givin up the name if she could have just given up the gender.

I think it is really out of magic ;P

I don't think that Jo would tell anyone. I think it is just a made up rumor and because it is belivable evryone believes it. The person could still be Regulus but I don't think she would of told.

Thta can't be true!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my God it could actually be him but why fight Voldemort when his family helped him?? It's ver starnge!!

I don't think JKR would give that away. She lets nothing slip. Even if we have guessed it.

duhh. it's so obvious.
but then again she admitted it, that's cool.

Based on what we know, RAB would have to be Regulas Black, however, Rowling has told us that she would be introducing new characters, and that could change everything! We'll just have to wait to see if the rumour is true!

When I first read book 6 I thought it was Regulus Black, but Jo is so careful when she speaks/gives interviews about not revealing any information. I find it really hard to believe that she would have told this translator the name of the character.

Hearing this rumor almost makes me doubt that it's Regulus Black now... Knowing Jo she has a trick up her sleeve. It probably isn't who we think it is....

What people will do for notoriety! If true I hope she loses more than she has gained. As far as the story is concerned it makes little difference to the enjoyment of that, as it is expected. However this still doesn't mean it is true, what a tangled web we lead.

I think "R.A.B" will be a totaly new charicter all together... have to wait and see.

I knew he was going 2 b important since book5! That's rlly cool 2 kno;)

Huh, I heard rumors but i didn't kno if they were true. Sweetness!!

I agree, I don't honestly think J.K. would ruin it like that.....

oooooh... scandalous!

Hmm I not so sure If I'm just going to believe that so easily. I'll just wait tot see what J.K says.

i knew it. altho i dont' exactly believe she would give something like that away, i mean she's not much one for giving hints about the plot now is she? JKR always leaves the questions open ended.... where only the next book could solve it. pretty nifty, however i think it'll be revealed false sometime soon like that last thing was.

i had no idea who R.A.B could be, it maybe is Regulus Black. Or, it could just be another rumour.

hmm well im going to go by jo's word on this and not believe this until jo confirms it or denies this on he site.

^^im also going to wait till J.K comfirms or denies it.

J.Ks not silly enough to give the secret away.
