{{#invoke:other uses|otheruses}} Template:Infobox given name Luis is a given name. It is the Spanish form of the originally Germanic name {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} or {{#invoke:Lang|lang}}. Other Iberian Romance languages have comparable forms: {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} (with an accent mark on the i) in Portuguese and Galician, {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} in Aragonese and Catalan, while {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} is archaic in Portugal, but common in Brazil.

OriginsEdit

The Germanic name {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} (and its variants) is usually said to be composed of the words for "fame" (Template:Wikt-lang) and "warrior" (Template:Wikt-lang) and hence may be translated to famous warrior or "famous in battle".<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> According to Dutch onomatologists however, it is more likely that the first stem was {{#invoke:Lang|lang}}, meaning fame, which would give the meaning 'warrior for the gods' (or: 'warrior who captured stability') for the full name.<ref>J. van der Schaar, Woordenboek van voornamen (Prisma Voornamenboek), 4e druk 1990; see also the Lodewijs in the Dutch given names database.</ref>

Modern forms of the name are the German name Ludwig and the Dutch form Lodewijk. {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} and the other Iberian forms more closely resemble the French name Louis, a derivation of the Latinized form Clovis, known from the kings of the Franks. The sanctified French king Louis IX (Saint Louis) contributed much to the popularity of the name.
