It's a soap. And the teasing potential is high, not just the obvious rhyme, but "Your lucks in with Lux!"

What about Pears? Fits in with the whole celeb Apple thing.

I know we are supposed to be kind and it's only an opinion, but are you mental?

Lux Fucks.

I'm sorry but someone who has ever met a teenage boy had to tell you what will happen.

CecilyP · 26/02/2012 20:28

No! Only soap!

upahill · 26/02/2012 12:33

Lux Interior is the only one I know and even that was a stage name.

TheCrunchUnderfoot & EdithWeston Grin

I thought soap too.

Aw Heartbeeps. I was so sad when he died and I had no one to say, 'Oh no! Lux Interior has died,' to. Sad

You're getting mixed up with a bar of soap.
Babies have legs and arms and are bigger

yes, but they're both as slippery when in the bath Wink

littlefish said what I was going to.

mathanxiety · 26/02/2012 00:47

Lux like rain.

Petrean · 25/02/2012 23:09

No... But it too made me think of soap. Whatever happened to Lux?

Heartbeep · 25/02/2012 23:07

latrucha I love the cramps. Was my first thought too...

My second thought was about lux levels I.e the unit of illuminance.

Lux interior is the only lux I've ever heard of.

nooka · 25/02/2012 22:59

Soap.

littlemagic · 25/02/2012 22:49

I love the name Lux wanted to call my daughter that. Heard it on the tv programme life unexpected

EdithWeston · 25/02/2012 20:29

What about Paloma (as it means dove)?

Littlefish · 25/02/2012 20:29

No. For a very good reason.

It's horrible.

SayBoo · 25/02/2012 20:21

I know a Luz, not Lux.

LCarbury · 25/02/2012 20:16

No but it reminds me of this book www.amazon.co.uk/Virgin-Suicides-Jeffrey-Eugenides/dp/0747560595 sorry

thehen · 25/02/2012 20:11

Yes I know one!

AThingInYourLife · 25/02/2012 20:09

"No, but i know a soap called Lux"

Wheresmycaffeinedrip · 25/02/2012 20:07
