Luci

Luci is a feminine name functioning as a short form or spelling variant of Lucia, which derives from the Latin lux, meaning light. Lucia itself traces back to the Roman family name Lucio and was borne famously by Saint Lucia of Syracuse, a fourth-century martyr whose association with light made her name particularly popular throughout Europe. The form Luci is used in Spanish, Portuguese, and English-speaking contexts, often as an informal or affectionate diminutive. Related forms include Lucy, Lucie, Lucía, Lucija, and Lucinda.
