It bothers me a little that if I were to name my son
Lucifer, people might give him problems because of it. But the connotation itself I can easily get over, because I don't even really think of the devil when I think of the name. I only notice how lovely it sounds.
I'd hate to set a future son of mine up for ridicule or to feel ashamed of his name, etc, but ultimately I think if I truly loved the name enough to use, I'd use it regardless of what other people thought. I'll never know for sure what I'd actually do though, since I have so many names I love more, I wont get a chance to use it. Looks like my hypothetical children luck out this time! ;)
