Thanks to Rosa for those!!! ^^Evanna Meghan Lynch was born on August 16, 1991 in Termonfeckin, Ireland. She is 5 feet tall, has her nose pierced, & is a vegetarian. She lives with her father Donal, mother Marguerite and elder sister Emily in Termonfeckin, County Louth, Ireland. [September 2006] She is in Third Year at Our Lady's College, Greenhills, an all girls' Catholic school located in Drogheda, Ireland. During her primary school years, she attended Cartown National School. She is a cat-lover who owns a cat named Luna. When Luna had kittens, she named one of them Dumbledore. Her other cat Crookshanks died in 2006. She was a fan of the Harry Potter novels long before being cast in the films. She claims to have read the books several times. In 2003, aged eleven years old, Evanna was disappointed that she would miss the release of the novel "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" as she had been hospitalised. [No, I don't know why she was hospitalised] However, the hospital released her in the morning on the day of the launch where a local bookstore arranged for her to receive a copy that was signed by author J.K. Rowling. On that day, Evanna was dressed in a Harry Potter t-shirt and had scrawled 'I love Harry Potter' down her arms. She had also painted her nails blue with Harry Potter written on every second nail and the golden snitch on every other one as well as sporting painted-on black Harry Potter glasses on.
As a younger child, she continuously wrote to JK Rowling and, in one such letter, commented about how much she would love to act in a Harry Potter film but doubted this would happen as she lived in this sleepy little place called Termonfeckin, where nothing ever happened. And to Evanna's surprise, Rowling wrote back, "Don't be too hard on Termonfeckin; it does have a brilliant name! And I come from a very sleepy place." Evanna has always wanted to be Luna Lovegood in the Harry Potter films. She and her friends even created a recording of her acting out the part and sent it to Warner Brothers but without any success. Her father flew her to London to the open audition for the part of Luna Lovegood. Her mother did not believe she had much of a chance of winning the role so initially refused to let her apply. On January 23rd 2006, she discovered she had beaten out over 15,000 girls, from all over the United Kingdom and Eire, for the much coveted role of Luna Lovegood in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
