Thank you so much for the update and the links, Jo! Interesting compromise they settled on, and I can understand her reluctance to stand her ground at that early date. You know what I bet? I bet they'll call it "Harry Potter I" (in reference to a comment in another thread on "The Madness of King George III")

But seriously, the wise thing to do would be to call it "Harry Potter" and leave it at that. The sequels could all then have their respective titles, which I'm presuming to be identical cross-Pond.
