Loki

My cat bears this name. I honestly think it suits cats more than humans.

I don't find this name to be particularly usable. It's certainly not the worst in my opinion but I do find it well more suited on a pet or left in the mythology and comic stories that was adapted into a blockbuster film, than on an actual child...

I know the mythological figure is a male, but the name still sounds feminine to me.

Loki just makes me think of the Marvel character.

Cute name!

I love this name, this is my dog's name and he is no villain at all.

This is a great name for a cat, especially if the cat is a troublemaker.

My dog is named Loki, and I think it would be a great name for a boy too! :)

I feel like many parents who give their child this name forget that the name Loki actually has a lot of bad associations. Things like when he had sex with a horse, got pregnant, and then gave birth to a foal. Or when he tied his and a goat's testicles together and started a game of tug o' war. Or how he was sentenced to an eternity of torture after he killed the most popular god out of jealousy. Not to mention how much he cheated on his wife. I just hope that parents take the name's bearer into consideration before naming their child after him :(

Loki is already a marvel super villain but I guess it could be a diminutive of Luke. Besides that I would not use it. Also rhymes with “low key” if nobody noticed ;) but it’s not a bad name.

I love the character of Loki, both in the original Norse myths, and in the Marvel comics/movies (I mean, who couldn't love him with all of Tom Hiddleston's charm). However, as fascinating as Loki is as a character, he does do some pretty evil things. I don't necessarily think he's fully evil (though he does get progressively more villainous in mythology), but it still would seem weird to name a child after a character who did do commit some extremely villainous crimes (even if, in the MCU, he was being warped by the mind stone). He is a very interesting and intricate character (and the comics, especially the more recent ones, and the more recent movies do give him a number of redemptive stories). He's charming and lovable, yet perhaps, because of his history, his name would be inadvisable for a child.

I myself am a fan of Norse mythology, and to be frank my favorite Norse god is Loki. I find this name to have a Mysticism to it, and a bit of mischief as well that gives it that rouge vibe. If you want to give a name to someone or something that implies rebelliousness and mischief, then I suggest this be your pick.

Me & my loving partner proudly & without regret have named our child(boy) Loki maximus Haines. I have 4 children from previous relationship, so Loki is my 5th( and youngest)
But he is my partners 1st( and probably only child due to age) I have to say that we as a couple have absolutely zero regrets or misconceptions about naming our little boy after the Norse god of mischief and THORS brother from the MC u! End of the day id love for someone to tell me how you wouldn't be able to succeed in life! With a name that is worldly known but rarely used! Fuck u boring, unachievable self loathing uneducated Fuck wit trolls who have have about as much personality and charisma as a dried up snail trying to make its way across a sheet of plain white A4 paper! Leaving behind you the only true and pathetic mark in your self righteous and lonely outlook on life with one hand on your keyboard spending your time masturbating to animal sex films while making out like your opinion even matters in a world that's trying to destroy itself whist trying to influence and judge everyone else because your fucking g boring and no one likes u and u cant get a woman because of your penis resembles that of a small dog with a lipstick�prick.

I really like the name Loki, it's one of my favorite names. Personally, I think it's a unisex name, and can suit a boy or a girl, but who knows. :O.

Personally I love the name Loki and I would love to name my future son Loki. And yes I got the name from "THOR" I just love the character Loki. He was bad at times but to me he always had a good heart. But I don't understand why Loki is such a bad name.

Personally I loved the name Loki and the meaning of it and have named our baby pitbull Loki. She has become very mysterious and evil in her grown-up days.

I think Loki is a nice name and I chose it as my name (since I'm a boy) and I think it's quite unique :)

I named my dog Loki. It took him 3 years to be fully potty trained. He ended up with 2 completely different cancers and has a congenital spine disorder. I feel I cursed the poor fellow with his name. My husband would say "what did you expect when you named him Loki" I don't recommend it!

Loki is the kennel name of my puppy. I do not think my puppy is evil.

I really like this name because it makes me think of Loki from the Trylle Trilogy by Amanda Hocking.

Reminds me of when I was a kid and was playing Lineage II. My aunt had a dark elf warrior named Loki, so whenever I hear the name I think of the game, and only later of the mythological character and his Marvel/film versions.

I personally love this name as a name, but since Thor and The Avengers I think it would be unwise to use this for a child, especially if it would be an unusual name to being with where you live. People love Loki (but maybe it's just because of Tom Hiddleston), sure, but people would probably assume you named your child after the character. Which is fine if you want to do that, but to me it seems a little too... pop culture-y? At the moment.

The ending of this name seems somewhat harsh and abrupt to me.

Loki was an interesting character. He was Odin's second-cousin. I don't think that he was evil, really, just mischevous and impulsive. I like the name.

I really like the name Loki. I don't worry very much about it because where I live, people are pretty much stupid when it comes to ancient religions/mythologies. I'll use the name if I have a son.

In my opinion, Loki is more of a cat's name than a human's.

I know several guys named Loki, but I actually like this name for a girl.

It's the name of a evil PAGAN deity! It should not be used for a person. Yes, he was a trixter, but he was also portaited as evil sometimes, ask an anthropologist.

What about the names Iris, Diana, Athena, Ajax, Alexander, Atlanta, Cassandra, Chloe, Daphne, Doris, Hector and Helen? Those are all Greek mythological names...

People, please think of how much the children in school (at least in America) would tease your son if you named him this.

Loki is an awsome name!

I actually named one of my cats Loki. I wanted something unusual and the explanation of the name was more or less "troublemaker" so that pretty much summed him up.

Actually, my neighbors across the street did the same thing. They named thier other cat "Thor," too. Either way, I think it's an okay name for a person, except that now whenever I hear the name, it makes me think of a cat. XD

I think Loki is such a lovely name, and it is interesting because it is from mythology. I mean, it has a much more interesting heritage then some boring name such as "Amy" or "Tom". I find (Norse, especially) mythology amazing, so I think this would be such a nice name for a child. I do not find the meaning negative but merely interesting and I think it is a name which is unique and fascinating and would stand out anywhere.

Will be using this name for my first born son (the sooner, the better).

Personally, I love the name Loki. I think it is just a great name, and it is one I will be using myself when I have children in the future. Despite it's negative meaning, I still like it. To those who constantly remind others how "horrible" the meaning is... Oh well!
