There is no reference to a name for grandpa Longbottom only the fact that Neville witness him die in the books. in additional background material from JK a family tree shows only Lysandra--->Callidora+Harfang--> (1son 1daughter)

but on the longbottom family tree there is Algie Longbottom who is Neville's great uncle which would make him Harfang's son as well which makes no sense. unless there was some weird gender potion accidents (j/k)
Great Uncle Algie is never specified as being a Longbottom. He could be Augusta's brother or Alice's uncle. With how long lived magicals can be (Griselda Marchbanks's age, at least a decade older than Dumbledore, isn't seen as unusual), he also could be Great-Great (& maybe even Great-Great-Great) Uncle Algie, but Neville just uses the title Great Uncle.
