Lacricia is in Origin.

Lacricia is a modern American feminine name, likely formed by adding the popular elaborative prefix La- to the base -cretia/-cricia, tying it to the Latin Lucretia. Through Lucretia and the Roman family name Lucretius, it is commonly linked to Latin lucrum, meaning “profit, wealth, gain,” with a broadened sense of prosperity and good repute in given-name use. Its sound pattern aligns with la-CREE-sha forms that have circulated in English since the 19th century.

Usage is rare but traceable from the late 20th century, particularly in African-American communities that embraced inventive La-/Le- formations and reshaped classical names. Variants and near-variants include LaCrecia, Lacrecia, Lacrisha, Lacresha, Lacreisha, and the source-like Lucretia; related blends such as Latricia (from Patricia) also intersect. Lacricia offers distinctive flair with recognizable phonetics. Possible short forms include Cree, Ria, and Cici.
