What does Luigi mean?
/luˈiːd͡ʒi/3 syllablesOrigin: Italian

Luigi is the Italian form of Louis, which traces back to the Germanic Ludwig, combining elements meaning "famous" and "warrior" or "battle." It's also, of course, indelibly linked to the green-clad plumber from the Mario video game franchise.

Luigi has a warm, easy charm and a built-in sense of humor thanks to its pop-culture ties - a great fit for a pet with a goofy, lovable streak.
