Meaning & origin

Latricia is a modern American invented name that first appeared in Social Security records in 1933. It combines the popular La- prefix with Patricia, a name of Latin origin. The name achieved its highest popularity in the 1970s, peaking in 1974, when it reached a rank of 1,104. Since 1985 its usage has steadily declined, reflecting the broader fall of La-prefix names. While never common, Latricia fits a pattern of creative, feminine coinages that flourished mid-20th century. It has no strong ties to any specific state or culture.

Latricia is a modern coinage combining the fashionable prefix La- with the name Patricia. Patricia itself derives from the Latin patricius meaning 'nobleman'. The name Latricia first appeared in U.S. records in the 1930s and saw modest use, peaking in the mid-1970s.
