Quick Facts

Lucinda

Latin origin

“A Latinate name blending Lucia (light) with the feminine suffix -inda, likely coined in the 17th century by writers seeking a sophisticated, melodic alternative to Lucia. Lucinda rose to prominence through literature, notably as the heroine in Cervantes' works, and carries an air of genteel femininity and literary polish. The name suggests both luminosity and elegance.”
