Lucius

Lucius is a name with ancient Roman roots, derived from the Latin word 'lux', meaning light. It's quite the historical moniker, often associated with Roman leaders and early saints. While it may not top today's popularity charts, it holds a classic charm that some parents adore. You might think of Lucius Malfoy from Harry Potter, which adds a touch of dark intrigue to the name. If you're using it today, expect some to see it as formal or even a bit old-fashioned, though it pairs nicely with modern names. Nicknames might include Luke or Lucky, and if you like Lucius, you might also consider names like Lucas or Lucian.
