No it's not a pretty name. It looks and sounds funny. Further, if you have to spell and respell, then provide a pronunciation, it's a terrible handicap to inflict on a child.
A luminaria is a bag filled with sand that becomes an outdoor lantern when you put a candle in it, so don't go there as an alternative to Luminati.

It would be pretty if the child was clearly from a culture not North American. It's a bit too far out for someone born here.
Especially if the surname was really 'normal' like McGill or Andrews or Gordon.

Sounds like a brand of light bulbs to me. Or a sports car.
Sorry, not a good name for a person.

No. It's way too similar to Illuminati.

It's actually pronounced Lu - mih-knotty
I don't really care for it. What about Natalie/Natalia or Luna?

I know it's not 'illuminati' but it sounds soooo close. Sounds like a name she'd be teased about a lot.

It sounds like a brand name more than a child's name.. I'm just being honest. I don't really care for it at all.
