Meaning & origin
Lucill is a rare girl's name that first appeared in U.S. records in 1902, its peak year, after which its usage remained negligible. The name never ranked in the top 1000 and is currently very uncommon. As a variant of Lucille, it shares the meaning 'light', but its scarcity makes it a distinctive choice. Despite its low profile, Lucill has persisted quietly over the decades without gaining traction, reflecting its stable trajectory.
Lucill appears to be a rare variant of Lucille, itself the French feminine form of the Latin name Lucius, derived from 'lux' meaning 'light'. It was used sparingly in the early 20th century, with limited recorded usage in the United States since 1902.
