Edward Lupin

"Sorry I will never know him...but he will know why I died and I hope he will understand I was trying to make a world in which he could live a happier life."

- The spirit of Remus Lupin to Harry Potter concerning his son

Ted Remus "Teddy" Lupin (born in April of 1998) is the son of Remus Lupin and Nymphadora Tonks. He is a Metamorphmagus like his mother, as was shown when his hair changed colour all the time as a baby (including at least once to turquoise). He is named after Nymphadora's father, Ted Tonks, who was killed shortly before his birth. Harry Potter was named as his godfather.

Following the deaths of his parents in the Battle of Hogwarts, Teddy was brought up by his maternal grandmother, Andromeda Tonks, and saw a lot of the Potter and Weasley families, visiting at least four times a week for dinner. He presumably attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry around 2009 to 2016. On September 1st, 2017, he was on Platform 9¾, seeing off Victoire Weasley, whom he was in a relationship with at the time. It was remarked that it would be nice if he was an official member of the Potter/Weasley family. Of the three Potter children, he seems to be the closest with the youngest, Lily. She is the only one that didn't laugh at his relationship with Victoire, unlike her brother James.

Behind the scenes

 * Teddy's origins are supposed to reflect Harry's, who lost both of his parents to Voldemort as well. However, unlike Harry, Teddy grows up in a new and safe world, surrounded by loving family and friends.
 * Like Neville Longbottom, Teddy is also raised by his widowed grandmother.
 * Both Teddy and Victoire Weasley have fathers who were attacked by the werewolf Fenrir Greyback.
 * Both Teddy and Victoire have mothers with unique traits related to their physical apppearances; Fleur Delacour has Veela blood, and Nymphadora Tonks was a Metamorphmagus.
 * Victoire and Teddy are fourth cousins, once removed, and are both distant descendants of Phineas Nigellus Black
