How to Say “Lewis” in Plural

By Alfie Jamie • Updated October 6, 2026

Lewises

The plural of "Lewis" is Lewises.

Meaning: the family name Lewis (noun)

How does it change in a sentence?

Use a plural verb with Lewises: the Lewises are. The possessive plural adds only an apostrophe: Lewises'.

What mistakes should you avoid?

A family name that ends in s takes -es in the plural: the Lewises. Never use an apostrophe for the plural.

Did you know?

The plural of a family name never uses an apostrophe: the Joneses, not a form with 's. The apostrophe belongs only in the possessive, as in the Joneses' house.

Examples in context

The Lewises live on the corner.
Singular: The Lewis family lives on the corner.
We had dinner with the Lewises.
Singular: We had dinner with the Lewis family.

Hi, I'm Alfie! Language, semantics and the joy of the plural form are my playground. As an avid writer, I've turned my love of the written word into a comprehensive guide collection - from the everyday "bananas" and "bosses" to seemingly abstract "censuses" and "prostheses". When not dabbling in language, you'll find me playing a trills-filled song on my beloved plural banjos or peacefully observing the plural herds of Brontosauruses. Language isn't just my passion - it's my journey, my symphony, and my sunrise. Let's explore it together, shall we?
