Lúcás

Lúcás is the Irish Gaelic form of Lucas, ultimately derived from the Latin name 'Lucius,' meaning 'light' or 'illumination.' The accent mark over the 'u' indicates a longer vowel sound in Irish pronunciation. This name carries cultural significance in Ireland and among those with Irish heritage, representing a connection to Gaelic language and traditions. While less commonly seen outside Ireland, Lúcás offers parents an authentic Irish alternative to the more internationally recognized Lucas. The name combines historical depth with a modern, appealing sound, making it attractive to parents seeking a name with clear cultural roots and meaningful etymology.

Pronounced LOO-kus.
