Lucci
Meaning
from the Italian surname Lucci, a patronymic or plural of Luccio, a pet form of a longer personal name built with the -uccio suffix
The story
Lucci is an Italian surname worn as a first name, and the paper trail behind it is better than the internet's version. The Oxford dictionary of family names records Lucci as a patronymic or plural of Luccio, itself a pet form of a longer personal name built with the affectionate -uccio ending. Americans know the surname best from television, where Susan Lucci's four decades as Erica Kane made it a household word. As a given name it is rare and unmistakably Italian, part of the same surname-to-first-name tradition that produced Kennedy and Cody.
