There are no rules where I live, but if we had a list, I'd include Lucifer as a name parents couldn't give children.
I'd have no issue however with someone changing their own name to Lucifer.
This is sort of similar to the fact that I believe people should be able to cover their own face in tattoos if desired, but probably not be allowed to do it to their children.

I like how Lucifer is portrayed in the TV show. He isn't evil himself, he's just the punisher of evil, so the name Lucifer doesn't have any negative association for me. Im also not religious so there's that aspect too.

I don't think it's fair for parents to give their kids a burdensome name like that.
If they like it, why not Lucien, instead? It doesn't come with a load of negatives attached.I mean names are just names. I don’t know why the US has a restriction of no other characters than just the English letters. Like what if I wanted to name a kid pi with the pi letter?
None of my business what people name their children, so I don't think it should be illegal.
Terrible thing to do to a child, unless he's the anti-Christ.
It's fine, although it's already illegal in Switzerland and New Zealand
Sounds like a pretty cool name to me. Also, where do you think the name Lucy comes from?
not great first school
