Can I call my baby Luca?

Luca Hughes? Full name Luca Adam Hughes.

We don’t live in the UK, but are likely to return to live in England. I have this worry of Luca Hughes sounding like look at yous. Possibly an irrational worry.

Grateful for any opinions.

OMG I was just going to say, "Of course, Luca is a lovely name".

But you're right, with that surname it definitely sounds like 'Look at yous' I'm afraid.

I think this would be fine! Luca is a lovely name, and Luca Hughes wouldn't be weird to me.
