If you didn’t already know, “Lucifer” is synonymous with"devil". Makes sense.

Lucifer really means “light bearer” in Latin, but Christians over the centuries changed that to refer to the Devil’s name. Not a “bright” move…
Interestingly too, “Godfrey” initially meant atheist (free of god), but this later became interpreted as “peace of god”. You really had to please the religious crowds back then if you didn’t want to end up burning on a stake…
