Meaning of Lew

Lew (pronounced LOO) is a unisex gem. It often serves as the breezy nickname for Lewis or Louis, names born from the Latin Ludovicus and the Germanic Ludwig (“famous warrior”). But don’t worry, no heavy lifting required. It also winks at Spanish luz for light, giving it a warm Latin glow. Simple, strong, and playful, Lew rolls off the tongue like a sunbeam at dawn. Though not common, its recent spark on U.S. baby charts hints at a fresh breeze of individuality. Parents seeking a name with history, heart, and a mischievous wink find in Lew a tiny warrior with a luminous soul—ready to brighten any story.
