She's always said she was quite a lot like Hermione as a kid(not as
brilliant, but as annoying), so I could see her having had
some "popularity" problems at school.

But I thought she was living that part out more through
Hermione's character.

Though I do remember her also saying that she was in parts
like all three of the kids, with Hermione being most like
her, but exaggerated.
