My DP's nephew has both your friend's son's names, lou - one first name & one as his middle name! He is a lovely little boy, so I like the name.

I agree with you DrowningInClutter, i'm probably lovin the name Luca because of "Mr Sex on Legs" Luca from ER

Love it - reminds me of ER

Love Luca and Lucas. They were possible names for ds.

My son is called Luca, so i love it!!!! oh and singersgirl his nonno is italian!!

Very popular where we live, which is kind of normal because Italy is 15 min away.

If you are not Italian, go for Luke.

My little boy is called Luca and we get loads of compliments. No real Italian connections either,m but DH's best friends are Italian, so we use that as an excuse. I just can't find another name I like as much for the next one sadly!

Did you consider calling him LUKAS? Eastern European thing ? think that?s why ER Luca was as well ?
Can than be pronounced without s or with and then it definitely will NOT look or sound like girls name. I love it. It is on my list.

lovely name

ime there's no problem whatsoever in the playground, btw - luca is well enough known as a boy's name now that there's no question of teasing

I really like it, is rather cool sounding, should be no problems with the spelling. Feel sorry for kids who have complicated sounding/spelt names- poor things!

HeadFairy · 03/02/2009 19:13

Lovely, but then I'm biased as it's ds' name

HeadFairy · 03/02/2009 19:14

We do have Italian connections, both sides are Italian, and we have an Italian surname. DH thinks that with his name ds is bound to be a footballer and play for Juventus!!
