You mentioned that "insist" will not take a direct object such as "him". Will this apply to other similar verbs like "wish" and "suggest".
If yes, then what is correct version of "I wish him good luck"?
Thanks.

No. The subjunctive form is not related to objects.
Whether the verb will take an object or not depends on whether it acts as a transitive (takes object) or an intransitive verb (doesn't take object).
'Wish' and 'insist'
