Origin: Celtic

Meaning: Light

Shine on, Lugus. This masculine name has Latin roots and means “light.” In Celtic mythology, Lugus was a prominent deity associated with light, intelligence, commerce, and craftsmanship. Historically, Lugus was worshiped by Celts from Ireland to Gual, a region which includes parts of modern-day France, Belgium, Germany, and Italy. Once Celtic paganism began to decline in place of Christianity, so too did the use of Lugus as a first name. Still, it lives on in folklore and beyond and is linked to power and enlightenment. This unique title will remind your little one to never dim their light. Lugus will brighten up your day whenever they’re around.
