Lysander Scamander was one of the twins born to Luna Scamander (née Lovegood) and Rolf Scamander. He has a twin brother, Lorcan. [3]

Etymology

  • Lysander is the name of a principal character in Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. The play takes place largely at night, lit by moonlight as Oberon states, which harkens back to Lysander's mother, Luna.
  • Lysander was also the name of a Spartan General.

Notes and references

  1. Both of Lysander's parents were from wizarding families, but is unknown whether they were pure-bloods or half-bloods.
  2. A Year In The Life: J.K. Rowling confirms that Luna marries "Considerably later" than her friends; as Harry and his friends married in the 2000s, the earliest Luna could have married - and thus conceived Lorcan and Lysander - is 2010.
