History & Origin

Asucena is a variant spelling of Azucena, the Spanish word for the white Madonna lily; the term came into Spanish from Arabic. As a name it honors the flower's link to the Virgin Mary and is chosen chiefly by Mexican-American and other Latina families.

It has always been rare in the United States, cresting quietly around 2001. The z-spelled Azucena remains the more familiar form, and the name stays a heritage flower-name rather than a mainstream pick.

Did you know? Asucena is a phonetic Spanish spelling that surfaced in U.S. records around the turn of the millennium, given to only a few dozen girls a year.
