      • Description:

        Instead of the more obvious Aqua, Turquoise, or Blue, consider this offbeat Arabic name, brought into the American name pool by actress Fairuza Balk (named by her father for the color of her eyes).

        Spelling variation of Luca; Italian place name
      • Description:
