I don't remember the name but I remember the character, may be you are right.

Missing you, Md 

There are many horrible sights in the multiverse. Somehow, though, to a soul attuned to the subtle rhythms of a library, there are few worse sights than a hole where a book ought to be. Someone has stolen a book (Terry Pratchett)

With Harry not in the white council any more I doubt it's an apprentice like we are thinking. But between the members of the paranet and the regular people who join under his banner during the battle of Chicago I wouldn't be surprised if Harry has a lot of people training with him to various degrees. I feel like this might be a "best man" twisted by fae /winter situation. Probably someone Harry hates. Or it's marcone

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of
arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to
skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body
thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a
ride!

I'm pretty sure the "wizard's apprentice" tradition pre-dates the entire White Council.
During 12M -- and this story is set during 12M -- I don't think Harry's going to have time to set up any sort of multi-student training.  One apprentice seems like plenty!

Agreed that there is plenty of need for Harry's training, plenty of students who would benefit.  One popular theory has the Paranet becoming a less-elitist / more-egalitarian replacement for the White Council (which seems doomed to fall).

Not Marcone, though:  he has Thorny to train him, and Namshiel is the Denarian's wizard-nerd, so Marcone doesn't need Harry.
