Origin and meaning of name Lush

English

Etymology

As an English surname, from the original sense of the adjective lush (“relaxed, slack”).
As a German surname, Americanized from Lüsch, from several placenames in Germany, derived from the obsolete Middle High German liesche (“reeds”). Also East German of Slavic origin, such as Lower Sorbian łuža (“swampy land”), from Proto-Slavic *luža.

Etymology

Perhaps a humorous use of the preceding word, or perhaps from Shelta lush (“food and drink”) (the sense "liquor" is older than the sense "drinker"). The Century Dictionary wrote that it was "said to be so called from one Lushington, a once well-known London brewer", but the Online Etymology Dictionary considers lushington (“drinker”) a humorous extension of lush instead.
