Lucia

The name Lucia is of Italian origins and it is traditionally used by parents who are looking for a name for their daughter. It has been taken from the Latin word 'lux'. Then, according to its Latin origins, the meaning of Lucia is 'light', 'bright', or 'shining'. It is the feminine variation of the masculine Roman forename, Lucius. It is also an alternative spelling of the name Lucy. For a period of time, Lucia was the most popular girl's name in Spain. The name has religious significance as it was the name of the revered Christian saint and martyr, Saint Lucia (or Lucia of Syracuse), after whom the Caribbean island is named. Notable public figures known to have this name are the Italian scientist Lucia Galeazzi Galvani and Lucia Micarelli, who is an American violinist who has trained Juilliard and was the concertmaster for the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
