Luuka

Luuka is a proper noun that may refer to more than one subject. It is used as a personal name in several language communities, often as a feminine form related to Luka or Luke. In many contexts it appears in Christian naming traditions and can be found among diaspora populations as well as in native communities.

Luuka also denotes geographic places. The most commonly cited use is Luuka District, a district in Uganda's Eastern Region. The district comprises several sub-counties and parishes, and its economy is largely based on agriculture, with smallholder farming and local trade playing major roles. In addition to the district, the name Luuka appears in the toponymy of other minor settlements in Africa and elsewhere, typically as localities with limited documentation in widely available sources.

Because Luuka can refer to different people or places, the precise meaning depends on context, including the country, language, or administrative level involved. When encountering the term, identifying details such as the geographic region or the nature of the entity (person or place) helps clarify which Luuka is being referenced.
