I have a best friend who’s sons name is Gianluca - but she almost exclusively calls him Luca. My husband is in love with the name Lucas - I am as well but I can’t help but think of how similar the names will be. Do you think this is an issue or am I too much in my own head? I also already asked my friend - she doesn’t seem concerned but is she just being polite? 😩 sos.

I wouldn't be concerned if your friend isn't. If the two boys would be siblings yes its way too similar but in this case it's fine

No, it's not similar.
As a Latin language speaker I can see the difference. Lucas is very popular in Brazil and Luca is very popular in Italy.
