Lua

Lua draws its charm from both Portuguese and Hawaiian origins. In Portuguese, it means "moon," derived from the Latin word 'lūna,' offering a celestial and mystical aura. Meanwhile, in Hawaiian, Lua translates to "calm," which adds a layer of tranquility to its allure. This duality makes Lua a name that feels both serene and mysterious, like a quiet night under a starlit sky.

Lua's popularity has had its ups and downs over the years. After disappearing from the charts post-1910, it made a surprising re-entry in 1974, albeit briefly. It experienced a dramatic drop that same year, plummeting from #2398 to #8775. However, Lua seemed to find its rhythm again in the late 2000s, leaping an impressive 3334 spots between 2009 and 2010. Most recently, it achieved its best rank at #1780 in 2023, though it saw a slight decline to #1993 in 2024.

With its modern and elegant style, Lua carries a serene and enigmatic personality. It's a name that evokes the calm of a moonlit night and the gentle mystery of the seas, making it a perfect choice for parents looking for a name with depth and subtle beauty.
