Nickname for Luke Timothy

Looking for a cute nickname for our little guy, Luke Timothy. Grandpa gives all the kids nicknames, and he asked for ideas. Other cousins, for example, are Benjamin Beau and his nickname is JamBo. Ireland Noelle is Leni Elle. Weird family thing, I know.

Ludo. This is the only answer.

Housenoob · 26/07/2023 18:58

Lumos, especially if you're a Harry Potter fan.

WhichEllie · 26/07/2023 18:55

I was also thinking Lumo, or maybe Luthy (like Ruthy but with an L).

Thanks for all the great suggestions! Grandpa has a few favorites and is trying them out to see what best rolls off his tongue!

@Horriblewoman …..hold on. I think I’ve got it.
There’s “no L”.
😂

Needmorelego · 26/07/2023 17:55

@Horriblewoman I don’t get the “Ireand” name. What am I missing that should be obvious 😂
Yes nicknames usually just evolve but this is apparently the Grandad’s “thing”. No harm in that. The amount of Grandad’s out there that have silly names from their grandchildren - what’s wrong with it being the other way around for once?

Ireland Noelle should have been Ireand. Missed a trick there.

This has really tickled me.

I always thought nicknames are best when they organically develop rather than contrived

Yep, you don’t pick nicknames they just happen

DaisyThistle · 26/07/2023 16:11

I like Luti or Lumo

JeandeServiette · 26/07/2023 15:56

It is used in Africa as a term of abuse about Kenyans (it is song)
A bit like calling the French Frogs or the English Yorkshire puddings

It isnt a nice term to call someone.

Who calls the English "Yorkshire puddings"?

I know the French say "rosbifs" (roast beefs).
