Yes. And partly from Latin, since Lunais the Latin rooot for the moon. See the connection? |

Yes. Apparently, all names in HP do have a meaning which suitably fits the character. Voldermort means 'dark lord', Petunia 'jealous', Luna 'weird' etcetc. |

Nah, it's lamina not laminaria. Lamina is the leaf blade. |
