Only because of the uber-religious folk who would give your child crap over it. So I guess the second option, even though I kind of agree with the third one as well?

When I think of people giving their kid a weird name, I think of two things: that kid will be made fun of and the parents are doing it for themselves.

Just tell people you were expecting a girl and was going to name her "Lucy" so you gave your boy the male version of the name, if they don't like it accuse them of being sexist.

Did you come out of the womb as a 30 year old?

Kids make fun of other kids for whatever reason they can possibly latch on to. Your name is like, fourth in line of things to be made fun of.

People made fun of my middle name for being Otto. They called me automobile.

He doesn't have to live with his kid's silly name. If you named your kid Lucifer TC I hope you're happy with him being bullied because you decided to get creative.

Unfortunately no. They only used it when I was in like, the first grade. So I wasn't clever enough to come up with a mom fucking joke yet.

I mean, this was pre-internet. Cut me some slack.

I pesonally don't think kids will care by the time yours goes to school. Most won't know that lucifer is the devil. Some may and be like "your named after the devil" but in all honestly, they will probably find it edgey and cool. I am being serious here. Some adults may think less of "you" but as for your kid, he will be fine.

Well, his name would be shortened to Luci/Lucy. Can you see them mocking a boy named Lucy?

It could be shortened to "Luc" if you pronounce Lucifer correctly.

That's not how the kids would shorten it, though, since it's not widely pronounced Luke-ifer

Granted, I do NOT think it;s wrong, but anyone who names their child Lucifer is setting that kid of for some MAJOR discrimination (expect him to get into fist fights every week during Middle school and High school as he encounters some bully who gets offended by his name).

Bullies target people for the tiniest, stupidest little details.... (EX: I once saw someone get bullied because they wore sneakers from some no name company). If the bully is religious (and most people are. It's stated by some sources that 75% of Americans are Christian. Less than 5% of Americans identify themselves as Atheist) and the bullies find out that the kid's name is Lucifer, I 100% guarantee you that the bullies WILL target that kid. It's the year 2017..... it's the age of things like SJWs and the sorts..... we have people getting offended by rated PG fart jokes..... a name like Lucifer will probably cause half of them to have heart attacks while the other half goes after the kid named Lucifer with baseball bats and tennis rackets.

Also, when he gets older, expect some jobs to NOT want to hire him the minute they read his resume and see that his name is Lucifer).


hahahaha people do not care that much about the name. Chick fil a may not hire him but to say no job will is ridiculous. Also highschool kids won't bully him because they will think his name is badass. Lucifer is the rebellious son, people will actually find it cool. Besides some crazy religious nuts no one will care and will most likely make him cooler to others.

I say he won't SJW's will defend him because SJW's usually don't care for religion. I feel the exact opposite is gonna happen. This day and age kids are becoming more understanding. Sure we have see more online bullying but overall, kids are better to day then they were before. They just want to chill and play games.
