Luthais is in Origin.

Luthais is a Scottish Gaelic given name, the traditional Gaelic equivalent of Louis/Ludovic, ultimately from the Old High German Hlūd-wīg: hlūd “famous, renowned” + wīg “war, battle.” It entered Gaelic through Norman French and church Latin (Ludovicus), and was adopted in the Highlands under the cultural pull of French saints and the Auld Alliance. In Gaelic poetry and clan records it appears as Luthais, while civil documents often anglicised it to Lewis.

Variants across languages include Louis and Lewis (English/French), Ludovic and Ludwig (Scots/German), Luis (Spanish), Luigi (Italian), and the Irish form Alaois; a Scots literary form, Ludovic, is well attested. Diminutives include Lou, Lew, and Louie. Related feminines are Louise and Louisa. The core meaning remains “renowned in battle” or “famous warrior.” Rare in modern use, Luthais offers an authentic Highland choice with broad European connections.
