Lumiere is a French name that translates to "light" in English. It's of Latin origin and was traditionally used as a surname, but has also been adopted as a given name in recent years. The name Lumiere may be associated with the Lumière brothers, Auguste and Louis, who were pioneering filmmakers in the late 19th century. They created some of the first motion picture films, including "Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat," which is considered one of the earliest examples of cinema. The name Lumiere can therefore evoke a sense of innovation, creativity, and enlightenment.
"The name Lumiere has seen an uptick in usage recently, with 8 births each in both 2022 and 2023 after a quiet period from 2019 to 2021."
