About Lucile

Lucille and its alternate spelling Lucile are both popular in France, but in the US, Lucy rules with the more-antiquated sounding Lucille a distant second. Lucile fell off the Top 1000 more than 60 years ago and it's hard to imagine what might make this spelling preferable to the original. As with Jenifer, subtracting that letter doesn't add anything.

Lucile is also given to boys.

Pronounced loo-SEEL.

As of October 2026, Lucile ranked #3859 for boys in US births in 1936 and #5051 for girls in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #1518 for boys in 1908 and #115 for girls in 1908.
