Meaning & origin

Lusine is a name of Armenian origin, first recorded in U.S. data in 1991. Although it has never ranked in the top 1000, its peak usage year was 1996, reflecting a modest presence within the Armenian-American community. With no top states to point to, its usage appears scattered and individual. The trajectory from its first recorded year to 2025 has remained stable, indicating occasional but consistent use. The name's meaning is uncertain; it may be related to the Armenian word for moon, but this is speculative. Despite its rarity, Lusine carries a melodic quality that appeals to families honoring Armenian heritage.

Lusine is an Armenian feminine name that may derive from 'lusin' meaning 'moon' in Armenian, though this connection is not firmly established. It has been used as a given name in Armenia and among the Armenian diaspora, appearing in records from the late 20th century.
