Lucario is a distinctive and modern name for boys, pronounced as loo-KAR-ee-oh. This unique name has its origins in popular culture, specifically from the Pokémon franchise, where Lucario is a well-loved character known for its strength and loyalty. Despite its niche origin, Lucario has been embraced by parents looking for an unconventional yet meaningful name. It shares some similarities with the more traditional name Lucas but stands out due to its rarity and strong association with the virtues of bravery and wisdom depicted by the Pokémon character. While not widely used, Lucario has consistently appeared in U.S. baby name rankings over recent years, reflecting a steady if modest interest among new parents.
