Choosing a name for your baby can be difficult – there are just so many choices out there! If you’ve pretty much decided on Lucas as the first name for your new baby boy (and why not, it’s a great name!), you might be left wondering, what’s a good middle name for Lucas?
Again, with middle names, you have so many choices! Some people like to use a family name – maybe dad or grandpa’s name, or even mum’s maiden name if that works for a middle name. Here we’ve put together a long list of names that we think work well as middle names for Lucas.
Try saying the full name out loud Lucas (Middle Name) (Surname) to see if it works for your Lucas and your surname.

What’s A Good Middle Name For Lucas?
If I was naming my son Lucas and had to pick a middle name from him from this list of ideas, I think I would go with one of the ‘A’ names.
I like the way Lucas Adam and Lucas Anthony roll off the tongue, but I’m also quite drawn to Lucas Elliot, so perhaps I just like the ‘s’ at the end of ‘Lucas’ to be followed by a vowel.
So, my personal top picks for a middle name for Lucas would be:
- Adam
- Anthony
- Elliot
- James or
- Jude
Choosing a name for your baby is such a personal choice, and you really can’t get it wrong! If you, and your partner like the names you have chosen, then it is nobody else’s business!
It’s fun to play around with names though. Especially with middle names, it’s good to try saying the full name, including the surname, to see if the three names fit together well.
If you’ve chosen Lucas for a first name, you’ve got a two syllable name to begin with. If your surname is also two syllables, then sometimes a one syllable name for a middle name can sound good for the rhythm of the name.
For Instance, Lucas James Baker has a very different rhythm to Lucas Alexander Baker. Neither one is more correct than the other, it’s a matter of personal preference. Really, any combination of syllables and sounds can make a fantastic name when you string them all together.
Hopefully we’ve given you some good ideas here for middle names for Lucas, whether you choose one of these names or continue on in your quest for the perfect middle name, we know you’ll make a great choice.
After all, you’ve already chosen Lucas for his first name, and Lucas is a great name for anyone’s new baby boy!
Congratulations and enjoy your new baby Lucas!
