Harry Potter and the Secret Inheritance

The Dream

'Where were they?'

That thought that kept repeating throughout Harry's head as they looked around the black void that they found themselves in. The last thing they remembered was lying down on a stone slab for the ritual- and next thing they knew; they were in an endless black void.

Sighing, Harry tried to figure out what to do- should they just sit down and wait or walk in a random direction? The former sounded like a bad idea- it seemed that they were the only one there. The latter sounded like a better idea, randomly walking in a direction until they found something. Harry decided and started walking, head turning left and right, scanning for something that could help them get out of the void.

Pretty soon, Harry got tired of their hair always flipping in their face when they turned, grabbing it and pulling it from their face and threw it behind them. Pausing, they realized something: Hair = Long. Looking down, Chest = Big. Harry gave a yelp of surprise at that, they had long hair and breasts!

"Holy shit. . ." Harry mumbled the feeling of surrealism floating around as they realized that the ritual worked. It actually worked! Ignoring that it worked for a moment, Harry focused on more important matters- their name. Now that they were clearly a girl, they couldn't keep going by 'Harry', as that was most definitely a boy's name. Rose was out of the question- they wanted to be in control of what they wanted to name themselves. No offense to their Blood adopted parents, though.

They wanted a name that meant something- something dramatic or beautiful. Either would work for them. Suddenly, a book fell onto their head- causing Harry to yelp in shock and fall over.

Rubbing their head, Harry grumbled as they looked at where the book fell to. It was a simple looking, a light brown cover with the words, '101 Baby Girl Names with Meanings', making Harry frown.

"How did-?" Harry stared confusedly at it, the book had come from literally nowhere. 'Wait', eyes widening, Harry wondered aloud, "Can I have a chair to read?" and with a small bang, a plush, light-sea-green chair held up with sturdy light-brown wood, stood in front of them. Harry stared at it, surprised that it even worked.

Standing up, Harry grabbed the book and moved over to the chair, poking it. Yeah, it was solid. Sitting down, Harry sighed contentedly- this had to be one of the most comfortable chairs that they'd ever sat in. Harry was even counting the super comfy chairs they had sat in the Room of Requirement and the Gryffindor Common Room.

Thinking on it, Harry realized that this room seemed more like the Room of Requirement than not. So maybe they could use it like that until they found a way out.

Opening the book, Harry started looking through it for a name that called out to them, as cheesy as that may seem. After a while, they had narrowed their new name down to around four names- Harry figured that they could possibly use one as a second middle name, as they wanted to keep the name Dive to remember who she was, and to remember her parents, both biological and adopted, even if they didn't know anything about the first two.

The first one they found they liked was 'Khaalida'

Meaning: Deathless, she who is Immortal

Gender: Girl

Religion: None

Origin: Arabic

Khaalida called out to Harry in a way they couldn't identify. They added it to the list because of this.

The second one was 'Kenna'

Meaning: Born from the flames

Gender: Girl

Religion: Christianity

Origin: Scottish

Harry liked this name because if they thought about it, Harry was being reborn from the flames of their old life, like a phoenix. The flames of the Goblet of Fire had paved the way for Harry to discover who they really were.
