Comments for the name Luisa

This name is really popular in Germany. Louisa is popular, too.

Luisa is awesome, not only as a name, but is a characteristic of those who bear it.

In Portuguese this name is spelled Luísa and pronounced loo-EE-su. [noted -ed]

Pronounced loo-ee-zah (Brazillian Portuguese)

Listen to the German pronunciation of Luisa here:
http://www.nordicnames.de/Aussprache.html.

A noble woman elegantly steps into the room. She has a perfect complexion of dusky, dusted tan and a full head of flowing, thick raven-black hair. Her gaze is strong, her chin held high, a trace of defiance. She is beautiful. Either rich or poor, she does not boast or beg. Pride. Even in the most awkward moments she is graceful. Intelligent. Firm but fair. All in all, she is a presence.
This is what I see when I hear the name Luisa. Love this spelling, by the way.

I think I prefer this over Louisa.

Also used in Romania.

Luisa is also Czech and Slovak form.

Pronounced "loo-ee-za".

I have a friend who has this name, pronounced loo-EESE-a.

The Italian pronunciation in loo-EE-zah. [noted -ed]

I'm not usually a fan of names that are/sound old fashioned, but Luisa is an all time favorite of mine. I love names that start with Lu-.

The female lead in the musical The Fantasticks was named Luisa.

Queen Luisa of Prussia (March 10, 1776 - July 19, 1810) was born Luisa Augusta Wilhelmina Amelia. Her parents were Karl of Mecklenburg-Strelitz and princess Friederike Caroline Luise of Hesse-Darmstadt.

I love this name! It is classic and modern. Pretty too :)

In Spanish it is also Lucha, Luchita, Luisita. Luisina is possible but not common.
