Lucas is lovely - a modern classic (compared to Luke, which is a more traditional classic and so much less popular at the moment). I personally prefer the sound of Lucas over Luke (and Lucas is more internationally used too) but beware there may be more than one in his class.

I really like it.

MummaGiles · 11/11/2020 21:38

Lovely

Chilldonaldchill · 11/11/2020 21:38

I like it. Luca is lovely too.
Both are much nicer than Luke in my opinion.

I love Lucas. The fact that it was the name of a player for the football club I support has nothing to do with my admiration for the name, oh no.

Hotdrop1 · 11/11/2020 21:40

I love Lucas. The name itself is lovely and all the shortened versions too: Luc, Luca and Cas.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 12/11/2020 01:45

Don’t like it sorry.

IhateBoswell · 12/11/2020 01:47

Make an me think of Lucas Buck. I’m not keen.

IhateBoswell · 12/11/2020 01:48

*Makes me think of.

No idea what happened there.

JamaicanJamboree · 12/11/2020 01:50

Lovely name.

Harmarsuperstar · 12/11/2020 01:53

Nice, really like it

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 12/11/2020 13:17

Make an me think of Lucas Buck

I thought I was the only one who remembered American Gothic! I didn't mention it though, because Lucas is so widely used as a name most people won't make that association (plus I found Lucas Buck kinda sexy despite his evil ways so it's a good association for me Blush)

FluffyEggsontoast · 12/11/2020 13:28

Love the name Lucas

spiderlight · 12/11/2020 13:56

I like it and had it on my list, but there's one in my teen DS's year at school who gets called Mucus :(

MyCatReallyIsAGit · 12/11/2020 14:01

I love it! Very classy and despite its popularity in the charts, have only met two.

IhateBoswell · 12/11/2020 14:31

Ha I loved it IamnotwhouthinkIam, not many people remember it though? My sister had a major crush on Lucas Buck Grin

LemonBreeland · 12/11/2020 14:34

I'm not keen on it but can't really put my finger on why. I think it's the kind of name that would grow on me over time though.

DepuisToujours · 12/11/2020 14:40

Not my favourite name. Like a pp, I don't really know why though... I think it's not really my era. A bit 90s maybe? That is my era though, so not sure what I'm on about here Grin.

It's perfectly fine and unremarkable I think, so there is definitely nothing wrong with it. If I met one I'd think nothing much of it.

Antonin · 12/11/2020 17:48

I really love it. Good strong name.

JohnnyJohnnyYesMama · 12/11/2020 17:59

I really don't like it, there was a boy at my sons school (few years older) who was nicknamed "Lucas Mucus"

IrishCawfee · 12/11/2020 18:26

I prefer Luke to Lucas and Lucas to Luca. Really not a fan of Luca.
