Although Harry and Luna share a touching friendship, with Harry naming his daughter after his friend and his mother Lily, there is never any hints of attraction between the two. Harry and Ginny share a more physical and passionate relationship.
“The school takes it as romantic and is shocked in the way Harry might've been worried about if Luna took Ginny's role of his crush throughout the book. But instead, they just say it was a 'friend' thing and leave it at that.”
Luna correctly observed that people expected Harry to associate with "cooler" people; he replied that she and Neville were cool, and among his closest and most trustworthy friends.
For instance, in the book, Harry finds a portrait of himself in Luna's room that she painted herself, and it was grouped with other paintings of her friends. He felt "a great rush of affection" toward her that could have been developed into something romantic.
' Why did Harry Potter marry Ginny instead of Luna or Cho? Because he wasn't romantically compatible with Luna or Cho. He had ONE date with Cho in which neither of them had a good time, and they really didn't have anything in common.
“He wants to have a stable job at Hogwarts. And Luna is a bit too kooky and out there for him and she wants to go out and travel the world. And their lifestyles just wouldn't mix.
But J.K. Rowling has never confirmed that is what she intended. It's possible she accidentally wrote an autistic character. Many authors base their characters on people they've met. Right now it is believed 1 in 45 people are autistic, so it's possible Rowling met an autistic person that became who Luna was based on.
Luna Lovegood and Neville Longbottom were fan-favorite characters in Harry Potter, but they ended up with different partners in the books. Luna marries Rolf Scamander, who is the grandson of Newt Scamander, while Neville marries Hannah Abbott, who is a fellow Hogwarts student.
So in the books, Neville and Luna were never a thing, but in the movies, Neville confesses that he likes her ("Luna?" "Yeah! I'm mad for her! Figured now was as good a time as ever to tell her, since we'll probably be dead by morning!" *something like that*).
Her middle name, Luna, is a tribute to Luna Lovegood, a good friend of her mother, during their time at Hogwarts. This naming choice reflects the deep respect and affection Harry and Ginny have for these two individuals.
"Harry and Ginny's daughter is named Lily Luna Potter, with Lily being a tribute to Harry's late mother and Luna honoring Luna Lovegood." "Fans are confused by Lily's middle name, Luna, as it stands out among the other names in the family and Luna doesn't hold as much significance in Harry's life."
When he is sixteen, Harry develops feelings for Ginny, but it is not her physical attributes that he spends the bulk of his time thinking about; rather, it is her humour. It is notable that though this is the book in which Harry and Ginny will start a romance, her first appearance is free of any flattering description.
In true Ravenclaw fashion, Luna is an independent thinker and is never afraid to correct others. Despite being overlooked and often mocked by her peers, she never once doubts herself. She has the strength to believe in herself and her own wisdom – a trait which makes Luna Lovegood a true Ravenclaw.
Ginny is introduced in the first book Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, as the youngest sibling and only daughter of Arthur and Molly Weasley. She becomes Harry's main love interest and eventually marries him at the end of the series. She is portrayed by Bonnie Wright in all eight Harry Potter films.
Yes, they are. Luna's mom, Pandora was the sister of Rebastian, and Rodolphus Lestange. Draco's aunt Bellatrix married Rodolphus so they are “cousins”.
Rowling revealed more information about Neville when she stated that he married Hannah Abbott, a Hufflepuff classmate, who became the landlady of the Leaky Cauldron. The couple live over the pub, a fact that Rowling thought people would find "particularly cool".
What makes Luna's quirkiness so much more palatable than say, Professor Trelawney's, is that Luna isn't trying to put on a show. She never comes across as fake or needy for attention; she simply is as unique as she seems. Luna is one of the few people who seem not to care about others' opinions.
It's possible she accidentally wrote an autistic character. Many authors base their characters on people they've met. Right now it is believed 1 in 45 people are autistic, so it's possible Rowling met an autistic person that became who Luna was based on.
This ensures that Harry can finally live the normal, peaceful life he always wanted without having to worry about power-hungry wizards seeking him out and also insures that no one, good or bad, will ever be able to weild the sort of power the Elder Wand is capable of again.
In conclusion, whatever happened between Neville and Luna happened with Harry and Hermione. While it is indeed canon that Neville and Luna would get together simply because Jo said it was possible, it is also canon they ended up with different spouses.
In the epilogue, Draco marries Astoria Greengrass and has a son, Scorpius Malfoy. Draco's hairline has receded, making his face look even more pointed.
