History & Origin

Luccia is a stylized spelling of Lucia, the Italian and Latin name from lux, 'light'. Lucia has traveled through Roman, Italian and Spanish naming for centuries; this doubled-c form gives it a modern, ornamental feel while keeping the soft 'LOO-chah' sound.

As a girl's name in the U.S. it is uncommon, riding the wider revival of Lucia and Lucy. Lyrical, luminous, and heritage-rooted.

Did you know? Luccia traces to Latin lux, 'light' — the same root behind Lucia, Lucy and December's Santa Lucia festivals of candlelight. The doubled c is decorative, keeping the gentle 'ch' of the Italian form.
