Lumen is the central part of a body part like a vein or artery. Also an over fifties dating app and a unit of measurement for light! Luma is preferable.

StarlightCeleste · 03/09/2019 20:45

Too close to Luna so it looks like a typos. How about Lumen or Lumi ?

Luma is a credit card.

joystir59 · 02/09/2019 16:24

Luma means light or sunset, and it is an actual name, but I don't like it personally

joystir59 · 02/09/2019 16:23

Umpah Lumpah

This is a hair removal system. I wouldn't go there OP.

HeronLanyon · 02/09/2019 14:38

I too assumed was typo for Luna.
Luma - I’ve never come across before -is it short for something longer ? I would assume possibly Eastern European ? Or Sicilian or Middle Eastern - blimey can’t place it at all !
Don’t think i like it. However if I knew an adult Luma I wouldn’t think twice about it.

Leakinglikeacolander · 02/09/2019 14:38

Adding to typo/hair removal chorus.

Whoops75 · 02/09/2019 14:37

No, typo and hair removal

Propertyofhood · 02/09/2019 14:36

Nope, as others have said it sounds like a hair removal device and also looks like a typo of Luna.

Thisismydilemma · 02/09/2019 14:34

Luma is a common girls name in the middle east. I think it's a pretty name.

FenellaMaxwell · 02/09/2019 14:31

Typo.

TheRedFox · 02/09/2019 14:30

Looks like s typo for Luna but also sounds like a cleaning product or similar. Not for me!

cookieandtea · 02/09/2019 12:00

I like it!

TequilaMockingbird0 · 02/09/2019 11:52

Agree with it looking like a typo for Luna
