What is the name Luke short for?

The name Luke is Greek. It means "A man from Lucania". It also can mean a doctor from Lucania. If you look in the Bible, the Apostle Luke was a doctor hailing from Lucania. (I think.) Try reading the Bible for more information on Luke the Apostle, or try looking at a Christian History book with the Apostles in it. It should give you more information on the name, 'Luke', Luke the Apsotle, and his origin. Or just read a baby name book for just info on the name. However, you will not find Luke Skywalker in the Bible! :D
