Araujo is a really common Portuguese name. Many in Brazil as well as Portugal—all places— use it.
Luz has started to appear in some questions about surname Luis/Luiz/Lewis/Louis which I follow. Luz confuses me as a last name, but I’ve seen it as a first name. Are the people who assume Luz is another form of Luiz correct?
