Ludo

Ludo is a short and striking name that combines Germanic and Latin influences. It's often a diminutive of Ludovic or Ludovico, both meaning famous warrior. While it's not very common in English-speaking countries, its brevity and strong consonant sounds give it an appealing modern edge. The name achieved a bit of visibility through the Harry Potter series with the character Ludo Bagman. For a longer version, one might consider Ludwig or Ludovic. If you're looking for a strong yet playful name, Ludo might just fit the bill.
