[Opinions] Re: Luca
in reply to a message by Julia
I like Luca (or Luka). It reminds me of the good-looking Croatian doctor in E.R. (his real fn is Goran). I know Luca is a male name, so it does not sound feminine to me. Though there is always a risk that ignorant people would. But is this really a problem, since he could go by the nn Luke if he wants to?If his surname is long, I would use a short mn (Luca James, Luca Miles, Luca John etc.) If his surname is short, I would use a long mn (Benjamin, Jonathan, Sebastian, Gregory etc.)"You sought a flower and found a fruit. You sought a spring and found a sea. You sought a woman and found a soul. You are disappointed."

Thank you!I'm not married yet (considering I'm 14, this is a good thing), so I don't know how long the surname will be yet. I love Luca James, Luca John, Luca Benjamin, and Luca Jonathan, though.
