Boys name - Luca

This stylish Italian boys' name has been popular in the UK for some time now and this year it rose 3 places to number 61 in England and Wales. While Luca is rising in popularity it still seems more stylish and exotic than its brothers Luke and Lucas. 
I usually feel that Italian boys' names don't seem to fit on non-italian boys but Luca seems to be an exception to this and while some people may thing that its 'ah' ending makes it seem girly, I think that it has a sleek, masculine strength.
Lucca (spelled with two Cs) is the name of a beautiful Tuscan city. I think this variation could also work very well as a first name, in fitting with the trend for place names.
Another spelling variation is Luka which was worn by a popular character on the TV drama E.R.
