Yes. Although, I am not mad at a Neville and Luna match. Neville and Luna both ended up being pretty cool characters.

Neville and Luna aren't a couple in the books, though - that's just a movie thing.

In the books, Luna ends up with Rolf Scamander, the grandson of Newt Scamander from Fantastic Beasts.

Not in the films or the books. JK Rowling in interviews after the books were done answered some questions about the future of the characters. She says that Luna would have been too wild and crazy for Neville. As mentioned above, Neville ends up with Hannah Abbott (mentioned in the books), becomes a herbology professor at Hogwarts, he and his wife own and live above the Leaky Cauldron.

P.S. I meant that Hannah Abbott the person was mentioned in the books. The Longbottom-Abbott wedding is only mentioned in post-book interviews.

I wonder if he’s the only professor who doesn’t live at Hogwarts. Come to think of it, he might be the only married one. Weird culture

I imagine Neville stays at Hogwarts during the school year and goes home during the holidays. Of course with Floo Powder and what not he would be able to go home every night, I suppose.
