Presumably named after the first witch in her line, Melinda Wyatt was the child Piper and Leo had several years after they met. In 1999, Piper Halliwell and her sisters visited the future in order to save Phoebe's life. While in the future, Piper was stunned to find herself the mother to this sweet little girl, and was even more surprised to learn the identity of Melinda's father. Unfortunately, in the future Piper and Leo were separated. Never the less, Melinda lived with her mother in Halliwell manor. Because of the witch trials in the future though, Melinda was forbidden to use her powers.
