Meaning: Its source is Hlutwig, an Ancient Germanic name meaning "Famous warrior."
Origin: "Hlutwig."
Nickname For: Louise
Popularity: The name Louie ranked 2822nd in popularity for females of all ages in a sample of the 1990 US Census.
Though this name appears on the 1990 U.S. Census lists, it is used by only a small percentage of the general population.
Narrative: The Ancient Germanic name Hlutwig was Latinized into Ludovicus. The French shortened this to Clovis, and over time dropped the ''c'' and changed the ''v'' to a ''u.'' Voilá, Louis. In the opinion of the French, this was an excellent name for a king -- eighteen of them, in fact.
Somewhere in this progression, the feminine Latin form Louisa was changed by the French into Louise, and from the interplay of these names a bouquet of girls' names grew -- Eloise, Heloise, Eloisa, Luisa and others.
