Luther

[Betty94]

I've been watching too much umbrella academy and I am really loving the name Luther but I know it's a bit out there and not sure anyone would like it haha

Does anyone have any unusual but lovely names for a little boy?

My best friend has just named her baby boy Luther, it's such a lovely name. Really suits him, and they shorten it to Luie. She now has a Luther & a Vincent

Idris Elba could carry it off

If we have a boy we are naming him Osian.

Luther is a religious name - I would be expecting evangelical Christian parents.

I quite like Luther. It reminds me of Martin Luther King, the Lutheran Church (which Bach composed for) and Lex Luther the Superman villain! So it has eclectic connotations 🙂

I like it as a surname but for some reason as a first name it makes me think of Lucifer.

There was a Luther at my children's school till last year. He was very lovely do I only have positive feelings about it.

I think it’s very cool. The kind of name that is unusual without being at all ridiculous.

Slightly muderous?

True but our other name is jack and "jack the ripper" is much more murderous :P

I don't like it. The sound of it mainly, but also its bloody associations.

Luther Vandross is the connection for me, so I like it OP.
