- Comments and insights on the name Ludwig: | Edit
Pronounced correctly in German, the name has a sweet, light and airy sound: LOOT-vich (where "ch" is similar to the "ch" in "loch"). Unfortunately when pronounced using English phonetics it comes across as clunky, strange, and sort of silly to many people.
