Etymology: Lugg is an English surname, taken from the given name Luke or Lucas. Surnames of this kind often arose when people were identified by their father's first name, so a family might carry a name that began as a personal name shared across generations. The name Luke itself traces back to the Latin "Lucas," a form of the Greek "Loukas," and it is the same personal name behind many other English surnames such as Lucas and Lukes.
