I don’t like it. It’s not the worst name where surname-y first names are concerned but it is very popular where I live in the UK and the majority of the ones I have met have been horrible obnoxious brats.

Really love this name. Those comparing Louis should know they are very different names- Louis pronounced Lou-ie. This to me just sounds too twee for a boy. While Lewis sounds strong and unique to me, I love it.

Lewis is also the name of a Scottish isle in the Outer Hebrides (which might explain its popularity in Scotland). The Isle of Lewis is part of Lewis and Harris (one of the largest populated islands) and is quite apart from Scotland as it retains a lot of traditional Scottish culture and history in its everyday. (The Lewis chessmen were discovered on this island.)
The name of Lewis as an island is thought to be Norse or Gaelic, probably meaning "marsh".

Lewis Powell (1844-1865) attempted to assassinate Secretary of State to Abraham Lincoln, William H. Seward. He was an associate of John Wilkes Booth. On the same night of President Lincoln's assassination, Lewis infiltrated Seward's house and stabbed him in the face several times. Seward was wearing a jaw splint from a carriage accident, so he did not die. Powell also severely injured two of Seward's sons, a soldier guarding Seward, and a messenger. He was executed on July 7, 1865 with three others for their conspiracy.

Lewis is the main character in my current favorite movie, "Meet the Robinsons." His design is based on the nameless character in William Joyce's book, "A Day with Wilbur Robinson," who tells the story of the Robinson family in first-person through the eyes of Wilbur's best friend. Disney came up with the name Lewis when they converted the book to a movie.
