Lukas

From the Greek Loukas, denoting an inhabitant of Lucania in ancient southern Italy. While the C-spelling dominated English records for centuries, the K-spelling arrived via central and northern European migrations. American registrations did not record the name until 1963.

The name reads as a modern, sporty revision of a biblical standard. A bearer is almost certainly under twenty-five and accustomed to correcting the middle consonant on standardized forms. The aesthetic sits somewhere between a Scandinavian design catalogue and a middle school soccer tournament. He has never rewound a cassette tape with a pencil.
