Or any other boy names along the same vibe?

Jude!

BoleynMemories13 · 01/03/2025 15:19

I like both, but would choose Jude out of the two.

I do prefer Lucas to Luca, but it's nice enough.

Katherineryan1986 · 28/02/2025 14:19

I vote for Luca

I really don't like the name Jude, it reminds me of the Beatles song Hey Jude, which I really hate - it reminds me of sweaty geeky uni students for some reason 🤷‍♀️

I like both names but I wold only choose Luca if there was heritage associated with the name. I know a Luca who is of Maltese heritage.

Mybusyday · 28/02/2025 14:06

I love the name Luca

Liv999 · 28/02/2025 14:02

@Dillanegasms , Luc will get said as 'Leak'.

Needtosoundoffandbreathe · 28/02/2025 07:58

You need a flow chart: are you Italian or do you have Italian heritage? Yes = Luca, No = Jude.

@cait967- image is a Star of David

Luca or Jude?

Jude unless you're Italian.

Why is it problematic?

Whenalldoneandsaid · 28/02/2025 07:16

I have a friend who has a Jude and a Luca

Emanwenym · 28/02/2025 07:11

I don't like them. They're both a bit too 'now'.

Nonameyet1 · 28/02/2025 06:44

I used to like Luca a lot but it's become really popular.
Jude is a nice strong name.
