Guy isn't the brightest. Him naming his son albus and severus is stupid as shit. Dumbledore pretty much raised him like a pig for slaughter and Snape treated him like shit. Why would you name your kid after those people.

Because all Harry knows is abuse and the names of his children is internalized trauma.

Luna was a close friend of both Harry and Ginny. That's why. The only other middle names he could've given Lily were Minerva, Hermione, Nymphadora, or Cho which would've just been sad and piss all of his friends off.

Maybe they have more chemistry in the movie, but in the book, Harry in no way would be getting with Luna. He mostly just finds her extremely weird and is uncomfortable by the extremely candid way she talks about having no friends until Harry met her on the train and tolerated her presence.

When characters have kids after a main plot is resolved has there ever been a time where absolutely none of them are named after another character?

Every example I can think of always has at least one. Especially if it's one of those 'next generation of heroes' type of thing.

I wouldn't. Despite the revisionist history people are trying to create, Rowling is a decent writer. If she'd written DH first, I think she'd have put some of that wandlore shit in the preceding books.

Horcruxes are a bullshit plot device that were never foreshadowed in any of the earlier books.

Wand lore, while not inherently a bad concept, is terrible in both its execution in the series and how it's used to resolve the final battle.

Characterization has all but gone out the window by this point. Characters can't even stay consistent within the same chapter.

Harry is suddenly a Jesus figure for no reason.

Half the book is nothing but putzing around, just looking for the next plot item.

The epilogue.

idk what needs to be spoiler tagged out of that but I'm blacking out the whole thing just to be safe

That's just a lie. From the very beginning, how Voldemort survived a rebounded killing curse was a question. The diary was showcased in the second book. There was a reference to the locket in the fifth book. HBP was entirely about showing Voldemort's backstory and how he created them.

You really don't understand why the dude that beat Voldemort as a baby and fucked with him multiple times over the preceding years is considered the rallying savior?

All of your other points are whatever, but none of what you said is evidence that she wrote DH first.

The objects were present, yes, but at no point was it ever hinted at that they were going to be bigger plot objects. And there's a difference between "the guy who can beat Voldemort" and "Jesus figure". I'm not even going to get into Voldemort's backstory in HBP because that shit's fucked for numerous other reasons.

Lily Cho is actually a pretty good name though. It doesn't sound like your tongue is doing acrobatics until it fails and falls down a staircase like all of Harry's other children.

It's basic writing. It would be like if Frodo made it to Mt. Doom and found out he had to turn back and go smash the Arkenstone as well. It would come out of nowhere and be unsatisfying because it's an object that already served its purpose for its respective story and at no point was ever hinted at to possess a greater relevance.

Harry and Voldemort share a connection due to Voldemort trying to kill Harry and leaving him the scar. The first nod to this connection is when Harry gets his wand and the shopkeeper notes that the wand's brother is Voldemort's.

So it's just showing Voldemort doing the same thing as Harry naming his children

Except, as I said, there was an entire book explaining what the horcruxes were. Your complaint is accurate for the wandlore part of the book, not for the horcruxes. To use your LotR comparison, you're complaining that Bilbo's silly invisibility ring is suddenly this powerful artifact of a dark lord when the Hobbit didn't hint at that at all.

Which is bad. Because it's the same book that establishes they even exist and also exposits that they need to be destroyed to defeat the main villain. All in the final book of the series.

To use your LotR comparison, you're complaining that Bilbo's silly invisibility ring is suddenly this powerful artifact of a dark lord when the Hobbit didn't hint at that at all.

Sauron didn't even exist in The Hobbit and Tolkien didn't plan to write anything beyond it at the time. Not a totally apt comparison there.

So you genuinely don't know what you're talking about because the horcruxes and Voldemort's backstory was in Half-Blood Prince, not in Deathly Hallows.
