Meaning & origin

Lucillie is an exceedingly rare feminine name that first appeared in U.S. records in 1905, its peak year, and has remained stable but nearly nonexistent since. The name is likely a variant of the more familiar Lucille, sharing the Latin root lux 'light'. With no recorded rank and a single documented year of appearance, Lucillie offers parents a truly unique choice that echoes vintage charm without any modern surge in popularity.

Lucillie appears to be a rare diminutive or variant form of Lucille, itself a French diminutive of Lucia, the feminine form of Latin Lucius, derived from lux 'light'. The name has seen very limited recorded use in the United States, primarily in the early 20th century.
