Does it count to kow a “Lucy Fur”?
Do you know any real-life person with the first name “Lucifer”?

No but I actually named myself Lucie partially because of the similitude

No, but i once had a client actually called swastika fuker, so anything is possible i guess

No, but when I was in the Navy I knew a Seaman Sample, a Seaman Guzzler, and a Seaman Drink.

A friend from highschool was called sperm bank in the Navy because he was Seaman Sellers.

I bet they got promoted fast.

Hopefully no one hates their newborn child enough to name it that?

Lucifer was originally the name for the planet, Venus, in Roman mythology. That’s where “morning star”’ comes from. Because it’s visible just before or just after (as Noctifer) the sun rises and falls.
Early translaters used it for the name of the “Shinging one” in Isaiah.
Not everyone associates the name with a demon… that’s mostly christians and Christian off shoots.
So no, not everyone is the same as you enough to avoid naming their kid something you think is alway bad.

Lucifer killed zero people in the Bible. Compare that to Yahweh’s genocidal body count.
The serpent never even told Eve to eat the fruit, just that she could (by the way, the fruit of a tree god put in front of the. Fruit that grants the eater the knowledge of the difference between good and evil. Which is somehow a bad thing?).
Satan wasn’t the one who ruined Job’s life and murdered his family for a bet.
Even when presented as the enemy, they can’t help but write Lucifer as the good guy. I’ll take enlightenment over bullshit threats of eternal damnation.

All true. So in your opinion, naming your kid “Lucifer” wouldn’t affect them and their life any more than naming them “Alex” or “Jane”?

I’ll take Lucifer over Braeden, Brayden, Braeden…

bout ten years ago, I met a toddler named Lestat.

Natas Kaupus is about the closest I’ve heard of.
Which turned out to be made-up, 80s, moral-panic, nonsense, because his Lithuanian name happened to be Satan spelled backwards.
bstix@feddit.dk 2 weeks ago
Yeah i wonder why anyone would associate him with the devil. No clue at all.
He had some nice board graphics.
ace_garp@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Moral-panic was in '87, 101 started in '91.
I’d say he was leaning into the witch-hunt with this board. Although I haven’t seen any of his earlier graphics.
Also, I’d skip boardslides for a couple of days with that new deck.

No, but I met a bloke called ZOLTAN! once. That’s how he pronounced it, allcaps and exclamation mark.
CultLeader4Hire@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Did he ask you to put on a bubble wrap suit?
TipRing@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I had a coworker named Zoltan Furi. Hungarians get all the cool-sounding names.
dhork@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
No, but I bet there are more "Lucifer"s than "Adolf"s
one_old_coder@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
I would say the opposite. Adolphe was a pretty popular name in France before the shitty painter started destroying everything.

Not many Osamas any more. Forget Donald. In a decade, every kid will be named a version of Jayden.

i tried to name my firstborn lucifer.. but she wouldnt go for it.. i chose something tangential
Blibittyblah@futurology.today 2 weeks ago
Your newborn sat upright and said, “you will not name me Lucifer!”
And then I imagine they collapse into a crying mess and you just name them Jesus for safety.
originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 2 weeks ago
naw, a little more straight forward. part of the reason i was attracted to my spouse in the first place was her atheism... she seriously considered the name.
i love the idea of lucifer as a name as it seems to be one of the first to challenge the absolute idiocy that is the christian god
fantastic
CookieOfFortune@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Not a first name but they chose Lucifer as part of their email.
FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 2 weeks ago
Yeah, Lucifer Morningstar, he owns a club in Los Angeles and as a LAPD consultant.
DebatableRaccoon@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
He’s really nice too, always asking people what they would like, even when they’re being held for interrogation. Him and that Detective he works with, real good-cop, bad-cop duo.
