AB -- I agree with red that usage of the term "followers of L" is just incorrect if not a slur

Red -- note that the term Lutheran doesn't seem to be a slur in Poland among Lutherans (not sure about other countries). This is what they call their center here in Warsaw

But the Church is called "Ewangelicko-Augsburg" -- "Evangelical Augsburg".

I, as a Catholic, strongly oppose calling our Lutheran brethren as 'followers of L' -- but, tell me, red/Mr. Lucky -- is the term "Lutheran" ok to you two?

Lutheran is fine. There are, or course, a number of different Lutheran synods of varying degrees of orthodoxy. We more traditional Lutherans will often refer to ourselves as Confessional Lutherans.
