Mateo. Luca is one of those names that’s overused by British parents aiming for an exotic link and is cringey. I’d avoid it.

I went to school with a Spanish Luc (not Luca) - pronounced like Luke. He was rather lovely!

Mateo

Mateo. He can abbreviate to Matty, matt, or even Teo.

Both lovely, but there are quite a lot of Luca and Lucas around, whereas I don;t think I have met a Mateo.

I prefer Mateo.

Like both, no preference.
