Is it a 'stripper' name?

[Sass79]

I really like the name Luna for a girl, but my boyfriend's friend said it sounded like a stripper's name!
Does it? What do you think?

So many dogs called Luna

Really?! I so many dogs and not one is called Luna. Loads of them called Bella, Holly, Max, Oscar, Rupert though.

I definitely wouldn't think stripper.

I'd think Harry Potter or Frank Lampard's daughter.

I really don’t like it but I don’t think stripper.

I think it could easily be turned into Looney (as indeed Luna Lovegood was nicknamed) but it does seem to be getting more commonly used. Maybe that association will go away?

Not a stripper name but my friend has a dog called Luna so I think of it as a pet name

Not a stripper name imo (and nor is Lexi?!)

Not a strippers name.

Cat name though. My cats name. Lol
Apparently it's one of the most common cat names ....

No. And I don’t read Harry Potter.

Very Harry Potter. Very dog. Very common in my area.

Not very stripper though.

Not particularly, but it's still an awful name, imo.

Don't know what your partner is talking about, is also be concerned he knows what strippers are called!
Luna is a name which has been sky-rocketing up the popularity charts these past few years. I think most people see it as a gentle, slightly hippy-ish but trendy name. There's also the Harry Potter association with it (probably why it's become popular) and that's sweet.

Luna is a lovely name. And not at all a stripper name. Does make me think of Harry Potter and also I know a few dogs as and a few cats a pony all called Luna. Also a few little girls too. But all good connotations.

I always think of names such as crystal, Phoenix, Destiny etc as stripper names.
However My friend who is a stripper assures me it’s no longer the 80’s and she and her colleagues are called every day names like Bella, Millie, Eva, Maddy, etc

Nope. Animal name. Could easily picture a race horse or a cow named luna. Nice name though but a little bit too twee for a grown woman.

Not at all a stripper name! Super popular though, I know 4 under 3!

Love it!!!

Looks nice written but the lunatic association would put me off.
Use it for a cat.

I went to school with a Luna, she was really clever and a good egg. Went to university to study Psychology and has done really well for herself.

I just think 'loony' when I hear it. Awful!

Every other dog I know of is called Luna or Mabel.

Luna is beautiful and it makes me think Moon.

I have a cat called Luna - short for Luna-tick (she was covered in ticks and fleas when we found her) - but it's a perfectly good non-stripper people name too.

And it's a Goddess name, Luna is the Roman Moon Goddess though, if you fancied something non-HP or pet related but still Goddess-y and Moon-y, Selene is the Greek Moon Goddess.

Lunatic.

It's my oldest daughters name. She is born 2003, a few weeks before the fifth HP book was published.
We are an international family. British, German, Italian and we wanted a name easy to write and spell in all three languages, not to boring and with a nice meaning. Luna works great and she never had problems with her name.

We are dog owners and yes I know a dog named Luna. But I also know Oscars, Elsies, Olivers, Alfies, Mayas... People often use human names for their animals.
I don't know any striper, but so far my daughter plans a different career, although she really enjoys dancing.

It's a dogs name imo

More hippy than stripper
