Lucy

原Lucy Ann Delaney, born Lucy Berry, was an African-American author, former slave, and activist, notable for her 1891 narrative From the Darkness Cometh the Light, or, Struggles for Freedom. This is the only first-person account of a "freedom suit" and one of the few post-Emancipation published slave narratives.The memoir recounts her mother Polly Berry's legal battles in St. Louis, Missouri for her own and her daughter's freedom from slavery. For her daughter's case, Berry attracted the support of Edward Bates, a prominent Whig politician and judge, and the future US Attorney General under President Abraham Lincoln. He argued the case of Lucy Ann Berry in court and won in February 1844. Their cases were two of 301 freedom suits filed in St. Louis from 1814 to 1860. Discovered in the late twentieth century, the case files are held by the Missouri Historical Society and searchable online.

原Lucy is the best name ever. I am a Lucy and I love it. The name does age well and it isn't a little girl's name. :D.

原This name DOES NOT age well! It's a child's name!

原I would have liked Luke and Lucy more than Luke and Leia.

原Lucy Loud is the gothic daughter from the cartoon, The Loud House.

原This is our family dog's name, so that's primarily what comes to mind when I hear it -- a dog. Of course, it's not a bad name for a human at all, though it's a little plain and boring. I don't hear much originality in the name Lucy, and I prefer Lucinda or Lucia, as they sound much prettier.

原Beautiful name. A combination I have with this name is: Lucy Veronica

原This is my favourite name. It's so sweet and I have a cousin Lucy (she's a great person). Every Lucy which I know is great. Lucy Pevensie is my favourite character from books and she has a great personality too. This name is also simple to pronounce and write. It's so cute!

原Lucy Lane, younger sister of Lois Lane, in DC Comics and adaptations.

原Lucy Heartfilia is a main character in 'Fairy Tail'. She's such a cutie!

原Lucy from Eastenders :') I get told I look like her all the time as well, funnily enough.

原Lucy Rose Parton (Born: June 28, 1989), known as Lucy Rose, is an English singer-songwriter.

原I love this name, but something to be aware of: Lucy has been on lists of the most popular pet names for the last few years now (pet names as in animal names, not pet names as in nicknames).

原I like how it's associated with Lucy Pevensie as The Chronicles of Narnia series is cool. Lucy sounds sweet, girly and pretty. :)

原This name is kind of annoying, I don't know why, but it reminds me of a spoilt little girl who wants to be treated to everything.

原I have a love and hate relationship with Lucy. For example, when I think of Lucy I am reminded of the name Lucifer and how they share the same beginning and meaning. Also, there's a tv show called Lucy about satan's daughter. But at the same time I love the sound of it and it's just so classy to me. Also, it's filled with history of a saint named Lucy, around during the BC era. I don't know many names with that history and I can't forget I love Lucy but most likely I'll use the male version Lucian or I'll just use it as a middle name.

原I think Lucy is pretty much the perfect girl's name! It is short and sweet, but not at all boring. It's feminine and pretty but a little bit quirky too. I just love this name, if you can't tell ;)

原This is my daughters name and it fits her perfectly! When she was born everyone loved the name not too popular and still a classic old fashion name that will grow with her and is also cute and fun and so adorable just like her:-)

原I love this name! It's my daughter's name. Well actually her full name is Lucina, like Luci-na. But she also goes by Luci. She loves both names, and there isn't anyone else in school with her name. But has never been picked on for it either. I love the bringer of light meaning. And to top it all off Lucille was my favorite Grandmother's middle name, so she's kinda named after her.

原Lucy is one of the protagonists of the webcomic Bittersweet Candy Bowl.

原Lucy Clarsen is a character from the TV show Les Revenants, played by Ana Girardot. I didn't really like her that much, so I don't like this name.

原Actress Lucy Liu is a famous bearer.

原This is my real name. I like it fine (and everyone I've met really likes it), but the I Love Lucy/Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds jokes get old after a while. Also, I've met more dogs than people with my name.

原I love the name Lucy, it always makes me think of the odd, but in my opinion quirky and beautiful song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. My only problem with it is that it's now a little too common.

原Lucy Westenra from Dracula. Great and tragic character from a wonderful and classic novel.

原American actress Lucy Loken (born 1999 in Burbank, California).

原There are many different names for Lucy. (Lucinda, Lucia, Lucille, Lusine, etc.) I don't know which is my favorite! :) When I think of Lucy, I think of pretty pink dresses and romance.

原Lucy Hale is an American actress and singer. She was born June 14, 1989 in Memphis, Tennessee.

原I've always been fond of the name Lucy. I love the meaning 'light'. We are planning to add a new Westie and will name her Lucee. I think it will be a great twist on this name and I think our Lucee will bring much light to our home.

原I love the name Lucy since it's my mother's name. The name fits her perfectly since it's a nice, pretty and sweet name like her.

原I like the name Lucy.It's nice, yet mature, and in a way, it's actually quite formal! You can't go wrong with this name.

原Can also be spelled Luci.

原Lucy Hale from Pretty Little Liars bears this name but it is just a stage name, her real name Karen Lucille Hale.

原My favorite girl's name!It's girly, literary, and spunky. I love how sweet and simple is. It's common but not the trendy kind of common, like Emma or Ava. It's common as in people of all different ages have this name. I doubt there would be another Lucy in her class.

原I quite like this name; it is usable for all ages I believe, and is quite overtly sweet-sounding, but also sounds grown-up at the same time. :-)

原Lucy Hannah (16 July 1875 - 21 March 1993) was an American supercentenarian. Hannah is the 3rd oldest verified person ever, as well as the oldest black person ever.

原Survivor's Boston Rob has a daughter Named Lucy. It was mentioned on Survivor.

原No offence, but I find this name a bit sickening. It has too much of a goody-goody feel to it.

原Reminds me of I Love Lucy! Gotta love that show! :P

原Derived from the Latin word "Lux" meaning "light".

原I don't know one Lucy. I think this name is adorable, but mature, and very timeless. I will seriously consider this name with the given name as Luciana/Lucianna.

原"Lucy" is a song on the 1990 album The Good Son by Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds.

原I love this name, it's so cute yet ages well.

原Cute, I would call my child Lucy.

原St. Lucy Filippini is the patron saint of the Maestre Pie Filippini, a religious order dedicated to teaching girls, especially in underprivileged countries, although there are several schools in prosperous countries, with the goal being to inspire others to use their education to help the poor and defenseless.

原Lucy Camden-Kinkirk is a character from the popular TV show "7th Heaven" (1996-2007), played by Beverley Mitchell.

原Ugly and Lucia is way better!

原Sweet, pretty name that is feminine and yet also somehow seems quite sensible and trustworthy. I can easily imagine someone called Lucy being a cute little girl and also an adult doing serious work in genetics or something.

原In Latin, Lucy can be translated as the word light.

原Lucy is a really sweet name! It would be a perfect middle name for many different names. :DD

原I love this name! Though my name is Ludmila, my short name is Lucja, and I love when they sometimes call me Lucy.

原Lucy is the female protagonist in the Beatles-inspired movie "Across The Universe". She is most likely named for the classic Beatles song, "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds."

原Lucy Szabo is the solemn, contemplative protagonist of Pete Hautman's novel "Sweetblood".

原"The Lucy poems" is the title given to a series of poems by William Wordsworth. They were written to a woman of this name. No one is sure if Lucy was a real woman or a fictional character. One of the more famous of the poems is "She Dwelt Among the Untrodden Ways."

原My name is Lucy and I love it. To me its pretty and elegant.

原I go by Lusie (I might add that I prefer my spelling) and, as someone entering the "adult world", don't have any problems with it - it's short, simple, and fun. I think it will serve be wonderfully, but then, I don't have any corporate aspirations. I really think Lusie/Lucy/whatever is better suited as a middle name that can be used if the bearer chooses - it takes a certain personality and set of goals to pull it off past childhood and not make it childish or frumpy.

原Lucy Hutchinson (1620–81), daughter of Sir Allen Apsley and wife of Colonel Hutchinson (whose biography she wrote), was a courageous heroine of the English Civil War as well as a writer and translator.

原"Lucy Gray, or Solitude" is a poem by William Wordsworth. It's a sad story of a solitary girl who seems connected with nature, and gets lost and dies in a snowstorm. Google it.

原Lucy Stone was a suffragist and abolitionist in the 1800s. She was the first recorded woman in America to keep her maiden name after marrying, and the first woman in Mass. to earn a college degree.She's one of my heroes because she had the courage to stand up for what she believed in and did what she thought was right, even if it would cause trouble for herself. I'd name a daughter after her.

原I will always associate Lucy with Across the Universe/"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds." I think this is one of few names that have been around for a really long time, but haven't gone out of style.

原I tend to relate this name to the Beatles' song, 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds', which is very lovely. I love this name, it's short and sweet.

原I have to say that I find the name rather bland and unimaginative, but that's just my opinion.

原I like the name Lucy so much I adopted it as my new name! It's such a likeable name with a lot of history, I've always felt an affinity with it. It has a bright and bouncy sound, a lovely meaning and everybody can spell it and say it right!

原Lucy SAxon (A.K.A the Master's wife) from Doctor Who.

原One of the world's first set of sextuplets are born in Chicago, Illinois. (There were reported but unverified earlier births of sextuplets being born in U.S. on December 30, 1831, in Italy in 1844 and in Maine in 1847) The Bushnell family delivers six babies, three boys, Alberto, Laberto and Norberto, and three girls, Alice Elizabeth, Alincia, and Lucy. Laberto and Lucy die at birth but we believe the other four babies survived the birth. Alinica reportedly survives to age 85, dying on March 27, 1952 in Warsaw, New York. We've also seen a Guinness Book reference that claimed all six sextuplets survived at least two months.

原I like Lucy as well. Just a note, but Lucille is a familiar form of Lucy, not the other way around. Also, Lucy Westenra of Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula is not short for Lucinda. In fact, Lucinda, like Lucille, is a familiar form of Lucy. The character's name is Lucy and the name Lucinda is not mentioned anywhere in the novel.

原Lucy is a common but pretty name. You can never be too old or too young for it.

原I love this name! It makes me think of Bram Stoker's Dracula. There was a character named Lucy in the movie version that came out in 1992. The actress Sadie Frost played the part of Lucy. The name sounds very Victorian to me. It's such a nice name in my opinion. Hopefully, it doesn't become too popular here in the United States. I hate when a name becomes too popular.

原In the Harry Potter series, Percy Weasley eventually has two daughters with a woman named Audrey, to be named Molly and Lucy.

原Miss Lucy Steele, in Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility, is a not-so-favorable character.

原Hate this name. So blah and boring it's sickening.

原Lucy is the name of one of the main characters in Julie Taymore's movie Across the Universe (2007).

原This name was famously given to the fossilized remains of a member of Australopithecus afarensis, an extinct hominid. The partial skeleton was unearthed in 1974 and nearly everyone who has taken high school biology or anthropology since then should be familiar with this connection.

原Call me crazy, but I adore the name Lucy! Though Lucia is a better name, still I like the name Lucy.

原My first name is not Lucy, it's my middle name - but I have always been called by Lucy. I love it, the meaning is wonderful. It's also Ancient Roman (being based on Lucius, which is another reason I love it, as my surname is the name of the first Roman standard bearer in England. I love my Ancient Roman name!

原I adore the name Lucy. It's feminine and fun. It's also a great nickname for Lucinda, Lucina, Luciana, Lucia, or Lucasta.

原Dakota Fanning plays Lucy Diamond Dawson in the movie I Am Sam.

原I love this name, it fits a little girl perfectly but it's still an ancient name that suits an older woman. It's not very popular in America these days but it's crazy common in the UK.

原Lucy can be a nickname for any name starting with "Luc-" (e. G. Lucille, Lucinda, Lucretia, Lucasta, etc.)

原A sweet name for a girl. Would sound nice as a combo - Lucy Jane.

原In the play Jekyll and Hyde there is the prostitute that Edward Hyde sleeps with. She falls in love with Henry Jekyll but Hyde is in love with her. I love this play even though she dies in the end.

原My year in school is FULL of Lucys. There are about ten in total. So one in each of the six forms we have. I'm sort of glad now my name is Luangi.

原I like this name so much, I think it's so cute!

原Saint Lucy is the patron saint of those with eye problems.

原Lucy Snowe is the main character in Charlotte Bronte's beautiful novel 'Villette'.

原Lucy Parsons, also known as Lucy Gonzales, was a famous bearer of this name. Parsons is a well-known and respected African American/Native American/Mexican feminist and anarchist.

原There WAS a character in Bram Stoker's "Dracula" named Lucy Westenra, but her name is commonly thought to be short for Lucille or just Lucy, but it is in fact, Lucinda.

原Lucy Westenra is a character in Bram Stoker's novel Dracula. She was a friend of Mina and one of Dracula's first victims. I think it's a cute name for a redhead, although that could be because in the 1992 film Lucy was a redhead.

原Lucy is an awesome name for a girl. Very pretty and easy to grow up with.

原Lucy was very popular from 1880 to 1910 and began to drop in popularity. Its usage is just starting to increase again today.

原Lucy is the name of one of the main characters in the astoundingly gorey anime 'Elfen Lied'. Wikipedia search it if you want to know more -- I haven't seen enough of it to elaborate. x);

原Lucy is my name. And I rather like it. Although it is a shortened version of Luangi, which is my real name.

原This is one of my middle names and although I think it is quite plain on its own it is a good name to use to link one or two together. I say that it is plain because it is simple and isn't particularly exciting - I think it suits a young child far more than an adult.

原This is one of my middle names and I think it is very pretty and is fairly common. But I always think of a Lucy as a curly and blonde haired girl with big blue eyes who is a spoilt brat, and who gets her dad to buy her everything so I wouldn't use it as that picture is rather negative.

原Lucy is a pretty name and I think it suits people of all ages. It's a fairly common name, but not the most popular name in the world. Certainly not as common as it was in the past. It's a name that you know, but you don't hear too often.

原I think Lucy is such a cute, sweet and inspiring name! It had always reminded me of Lucy Pevensie as well. :-)

原Nice enough name, but whenever I see it, I think of that annoying girl from 7th Heaven. Anyway, I prefer the spelling Lucie. No offense to anyone with this name; this is just my humble opinion.

原Sweet and pretty.

原I just love this name. I can picture a young girl with this name and would expect her to have a colorful personality and be very kind and caring.
