Luigi is the name of the little '59 Fiat 500 in the Pixar movie "Cars." He owns a tire shop in Radiator Springs. He is voiced by Tony Shalhoub.

This name's fun to say for some reason. It might be partially because I like the Mario Bros. character, but I think Luigi's a great name. :)
I wouldn't choose it for my kid though, because it's too Italian. Not to sound racist, but it just doesn't fit a non-Italian very well.

I've heard this name also pronounced, besides the usual lu-e-jee, lu-e-zhe ("zh" being like the way j is pronounced in French, and the "s" in Asian). :>

Luigi from The Super Mario Bros! Hehe this is such a classic name; a name I grew up and associated with Mario and Princess Toadstool. It's a nice name, but I can't see my child grow up with this name. Someone else's kid, sure go ahead, this is a cool name!

The pronunciation is loo-EE-jee. [noted -ed]

It's okay, but it's a little dull as far as Italian names go. The Mario character pops into my head first, and next the Mario music starts playing. Although it would be funny if someone named twin boys Mario and Luigi.

Two great Italian composers -Luigi Cherubini and Luigi Boccherini.

I bet a lot of people have been saying what I said, but I'm a big fan of "Super Mario Bros." I like to play as Luigi (smiley)
