The Saju view
The first sound is the heaviest in the pronunciation-element system, and for Luka it is fire, made with the tip of the tongue. Luka is a fire name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack fire. A chart lacking earth can lean on the fire in Luka, since fire is the parent of earth in Saju. If fire is already strong in a chart, Luka ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.
