I love Luz. One of the most beautiful names in my opinion. Luz is my Spanish alter-ego. If I'm in a Spanish speaking situation, sometimes I have people call me Luz. Some people have forgotten my real name as they continued to call me Luz. Because I answer to it without hesitation, I'd feel a little weird giving the name to a daughter. Plus I can only bring myself to say it in a Spanish accent, so it might come off a little weird to people if I introduce her in a perfect Spanish accent (I'm not hispanic).

One of the interesting things is that it is connected to the act of birth itself. In Spanish, "to give birth" is "dar a luz," literally to give light. "Light" is a beautiful meaning enough, but "birth" adds another beautiful meaning.

I pronounce it LOOS. Only in certain parts of Spain do they pronounce it LOOTH. I have more Latin American Spanish influences.

I have trouble coming up with combos for Luz similarly to how I have trouble putting my true name, Amy in combos. It has such complex associations (I've used it since I was 12). But I'll give it a shot. I don't know if you want blantantly Spanish combos or what. So I'll do a bit of everything.
