We know that Harry's children are James Sirius, Albus Severus and Lily Luna.
O K so, James is after his father and James after his godfather.
Albus is after Dumbledore, who was Harry's mentor and Severus after Snape, maybe because Harry understood he as an unknown Hero.
And Lily after his mother, but what about Luna? Why did Harry put a name Luna for his daughter?
Well, what is your opinion?

Here's my theory: Harry and Ginny had there first son and named them after people Harry loved. Then they had their second son, and again Harry had more dead people he wanted to commemorate. Then, the daughter was born. Harry begins naming her after dead people, when Ginny goes:"No. Harry, that is it!"

Harry: "What?"

Ginny: "You've named both of our other children, and frankly, you're terrible at it!"

Harry: "What?! no I'm not!"

Ginny: "'Albus Severus Potter'?"

Harry: "Shut up! That's a brilliant name! He's named after two famously brilliant wizards!"

Ginny: "Two famously brilliant wizards with really dumb names!"

Harry: "Shut up!

Ginny: "Harry, I get that you want to honor everyones memory by naming your children after them, but it's my turn to name one!"

Harry: "Ok fine. But we have to call her Lily."

Ginny: "What?"

Harry: "Oh come on Ginny. It's my mom! We have to!"

Ginny: "Fine. But I get to pick a middle name."

Harry: "Lovely."

Ginny: "How about Jennifer?"

Harry: "Who's Jennifer?"

Ginny: "No one. I just like the name."

Harry: "Well you have to name her after somone!"

Ginny: "Why?"

Harry: "...Because."

Ginny: "What, like Nymphadora?"

Harry: "Well, no. 'Lily Nymphadora Potter' is just silly."

Ginny: "Well, what about Luna?"

Harry: "... Luna's not dead."

Ginny: "No, she isn't. Luna's my best friend. It's a pretty name, and I like it."

Harry: "Well, I'd feel more comfortable if she was named somone dead. How about Hedwig?"

Ginny: "No Harry."

Thus, Lily Luna Potter was christened.

Luna is after Luna Lovegood, a friend of Harry and Ginny's from school. Luna was loyal and kind and very much on Harry and Dumbledore's side. However, her inclusion in his kids' names is a little strange as the rest of the people honoured are dead, while Luna is still alive.



I think James Sirius should have been Remus Sirius as James is already Harry's middle name, so in a way James Potter was already honoured (although he was not dead when James and Lily gave Harry James as a middle name).

I think Albus Severus is perfect.

Although I love Luna, I would have prefered to see Lily Tonks (I know Tonks was Nymphadora's last name, but as we all know, she hated her first name and never used it).

I think Luna was someone that Harry really liked as a friend and he could relate to her quite well. To Ginny she was also a great friend.



I guess they admired Luna's morals, qualities, and the way she made it feel like happiness is the there, even in the dark times.



Also, Luna was a very brave witch, and as each of Harry's other children are named after someone they thought was, so was Luna. He didn't chose Neville because that is a boy's name, or even Hermione because she is his children's aunt. But Luna is a pretty name that is completely perfect.
2009-01-25 10:13:52 UTC
I think Luna was named after Luna Lovegood, because she was sort of like Harry in some ways, and she was a good friend too.

Harry had a thing for Luna! *gasp*

oh gosh, now i got to make a fanfiction about THAT!

I really think Harry and Luna would've made a good item...:p

perhaps JK dotes Luna and perhaps she had considered Luna being Harry's partner instead of Ginny. In book 5 when Luna searched for her stolen things and met Harry in the corridor, i could feel the chemistry between them. but maybe that's just me..lol

Luna never ever doubted harry.

whereas hermione and ron did. (not for long, but they still did.)

Lily Luna is a pretty name anyway.



I feel a bit sorry for Ginny though, because none of them are really named after anyone she knew or whatever.(apart from the 'luna' bit)

if that makes sense.

He put Luna because Luna Lovegood was a characteer who was nice to him and who he felt understood him. she was the first one to see the thestrals and she came up with the idea to fly the thestrals to the ministry to 'save' sirius. another reason why he chose luna is probably because lily ginny and lily hermione dont sound right.
Luna Lovegood's friend(OOO)[

After Luna Lovegood she always knew he was right about Lord Voldemort coming back when most of the wizarding world thought he was insane.

After Luna Lovegood, one of the characters.

I think she picked Luna's name because she likes to pick names that have the first letter of the first and last name the same. Kind of like the names for the quidditch teams... just a guess.

Well Luna Lovegood, was a friend and classmate, to Harry, and his posse, and it is a good name for the daughter of a mage.

i think of James ought to have it certainly! he's the eldest. And he must be depended directly to share it together with his little brother and sister. Plus, i think of he'd have so plenty extra relaxing with it than the different 2. they provide the impact of being particularly boring. James is his namesake, he might placed it to good use i'm particular. Albus is extra like Harry, companies to attracting hardship, yet on no account intentionally. If Harry did no longer have the venture he had, and all that tension weighing in on him to keep the international and all, he'd have been particularly boring. yet i assume that explains why he wasn't as relaxing as his father became. All that James had to rigidity approximately became protecting his hair status on end and giving Snape wedgies. i'm straying from the element... oh yeah, James ought to have it. Albus is purely boring and a whiny-infant!

harry had a newfound respect for luna after he went to her house and saw the paintings and the long chain saying friends...friends...friends in her room. Luna is very brave so i wish she would have played a bigger part in the books.

I always assumed it was because Luna posessed qualities he admired in the other namesakes of his children. She was loyal, brave, kind, a good friend, and very intelligent. Luna was one of the few people who never wavered in her support of Harry (even Ron and Hermione had their doubts, remember), and she did everyone proud in the final climactic scenes.

luna comes from luna lovegood, 'cause she was a good friend, and she was kinda like Harry, so i guess that's why he named her luna.
**PuRpLpUpPy**:)
2009-01-26 06:27:11 UTC
actually to tell the truth harry kept names for

his first son as JAMES POTTER and not JAMES SIRIUS POTTER

his second son as ALBUS SEVERUS POTTER

his daughter as just LILY POTTER and not LILY LUNA



and im not mean
2009-01-25 05:59:38 UTC
because in the order of the phoenix, he feels so lonely but he feels close to luna (not boyfriend/girlfriend) but as a friend, because they are both outsiders.



she was also one of the people who belived him about voldemort returning.



she also helped fight off voldemort, as she is a keen member of the DA.
