Meaning:Renowned warrior
Luigi is a masculine name of Italian origin, meaning “renowned warrior.” It is derived from the German name Ludwig, combining the Old High German words hlūt and wīg, which means “famous” and “war,” respectively. However, this household name is most well-known for its association with the Mario franchise, with Luigi being Mario’s younger brother and sidekick. Where Mario is courageous and daring, Luigi is kindhearted and shy, making them an iconic pair and much loved among fans. Although Luigi is not your typical “renowned warrior,” when it comes down to it, his bravery and heroism are akin to Mario’s, making Luigi a brilliant choice for parents with a nostalgic connection to the tales of the Mushroom Kingdom.
