Luci Origin and Meaning

The name Luci is a girl's name of Slavic origin.

Luci is a feminine name that serves as a shortened form of Lucia or Lucille, both derived from the Latin word "lux" meaning "light." This cheerful, bright name carries connotations of illumination, clarity, and radiance. Luci offers a modern, streamlined alternative to longer light-based names while maintaining their meaningful essence. The spelling with an 'i' instead of 'y' (Lucy) gives it a slightly more contemporary feel. While less common than Lucy, Luci has gained steady appreciation among parents seeking a name that's both simple and distinctive. Its cross-cultural appeal works well in many language traditions, particularly Spanish and Italian communities where names related to light are traditionally popular.
