Meaning: Famous fighter
Ludwig might mean "famous fighter," but it's also tied to one of the world's most iconic composers, Ludwig van Beethoven. This German boy’s name carries a certain weightiness that baby will be sure to grow into, whether they embrace their creative side or want to stand up for those in need. It's a form of both Louis and Aloysius but gives them both a fun, historic spin.
