Baby Names

Luther? Yay or Nay?

I saw the name Luther on a different forum and I was wondering what you guys thought about it? You can be as brutal as you like. I would rather know if my choice is a horrible one or not.

Re: Luther? Yay or Nay?

  • I love it :. You are from the what to expect board right? I post on there too but I like this board so much more because people are completely honest and no one gets their feelings hurt.
  • Loading the player...
  • I really want to like it... and if I met someone with a baby with that name, I think I'd be really approving. I am a big fan of Martin Luther and I think it's that association that draws me in. I also think of Lex Luther, the super villian, though.

    Yes I am! I'm the same Kmommy91. I also go on Baby Center occasionally but my username is KandZ127. I "stole" Luther from the WTE board. I thought it was a really cool name.

    Oh I didn't think about Lex Luther. Thanks for bringing it up! Maybe my husband won't notice. Hehe!

  • Really not a fan of it. Not sure why though... I just cannot get on board with the sound of it.

    It is a family name for me cousin. It suits him well he is a tall, strong, and confident cop. I like it, but it is not my favorite. It is not horrible at all. I think it sounds strong and works well for an adult. He could also go by Lou or Louie.Some others you might light: Lawrence, Walker, Duncan, Marshall, Lucian, Arthur, Russell, Reuben, Simon, Louis, Walter, Theodore, Victor, Desmond, Warren


    I actually have Lucian on list too! I wish my husband would like Russell.

  • Nay for me because I'm Catholic and it just doesn't sit right with me. ;)

    Also I know DH wouldn't like to name his child for a comic book villain.

  • I don't mind it. I do think of Lex Luther, Luther Vandross, and the Luther on that old show, "Coach." I also once knew a dog named Luther, but that doesn't mean much. It's a fine name.

  • Not a name I would pick but I think it is a fine name. It makes me think of the lovable old guy on the tv show Coach.

  • I don't like the way it sounds when I say it!  It is a real name, spelled correctly so  I wouldn't think twice or side eye anyone but I just am not a fan!

  • All I can think of is Lex Luthor from Superman.

    I love Lucius and Lucien. I won't ever get to use them because DH hates them.

  • I like it. It's a strong, masculine name.

  • Not a fan. Makes me think of Martin Luther (responsible for the Protestant reformation in the 1500's), MLK, and Luther Vandross

    I don't really understand how any of that is bad?
