Louis
French: an extremely common French name, of Germanic origin. It iscomposed of the elements hlud fame + wig warrior, and is thusetymologically the same name as German Ludwig. From the early Middle Agesonwards, it was very frequently used in French royal and noble families.An archaic Latinized form of the name is Clovis, and this is the formgenerally used for the Frankish leader (?466–511) who ended the Romandomination over Gaul: Clovis defeated rival Germanic tribes, married theBurgundian princess Clothilde, and founded the Frankish monarchy in whatis now France. In 496 he and his followers were converted toChristianity. Louis I (778–840) was the son of Charlemagne, who ruledboth as King of France and Holy Roman Emperor. Altogether, the name wasborne by sixteen kings of France up to the French Revolution, in whichLouis XVI perished. Louis XIV, “the Sun King” (1638–1715), reigned forseventy-two years (1643–1715), presiding in the middle part of his reignover a period of unparalleled French power and prosperity. See alsoLudwig.
In modern times, Louis is occasionally used in the English-speaking world(usually pronounced /lui/). In Britain the Anglicized form Lewis israther more common, whereas in America the reverse is true. Both formshave been used as Anglicized versions of Gaelic Laoiseach and Lughaidh.Cognates: Scottish Gaelic: Luthais. Italian: Luigi, Lodovico. Spanish,Portuguese: Luis. Catalan: Lluis. Basque: Koldo.
