No way! Luna was on our shortlist if my LO had been a girl. We can't use it on a future LO because it is to close to Lucian, so go forth and use Luna. I don't think it is too much even with an L lastname because
1)Harry Potter won't be as important to our kids as it is to us and 2)Luna Lovegood was an awesome character so any potential association would be positive.
I like it. I was just thinking about this name today. I love HP and wouldn't mind the association because she's a cool character. But really it's just a nice unique name that you don't hear too often.
Biased cause DD is Luna, but I don't think the association is a big deal, like others said, as long as it doesn't sound a lot like Lovegood. I've only had a few people ask, "Like Luna Lovegood?" If it helps people remember her name, it doesn't bother me.

This is me too.
I like Luna a lot--one of my co workers has a DD named Luna and I have been admiring it from afar.
