Luchino is Italian in Origin.
Luchino (loo-KEE-no) is an Italian given name formed with the affectionate diminutive suffix -ino on the Luc- family of names - most commonly Luca and Luciano, and sometimes Lucio. These derive from Latin Lucas (Greek Loukas, “man from Lucania”) and Lucius/Lucianus, linked to lux, “light,” so Luchino carries senses of “little Luke” and “little one of light.”
Attested in northern Italy since the Middle Ages, the name is strongly associated with the Visconti of Milan: Luchino Visconti, lord of Milan (1292–1349), and the renowned film director Luchino Visconti (1906–1976) cemented its cultural profile. Usage today is rare and regionally concentrated in Lombardy and surrounding areas. Variants and related forms include Luca, Luciano, Lucio, Lucian, Lucien, Luke, Lucas, Luka, and Lukasz; diminutives such as Luchin occur dialectally. Feminine counterparts from the same root include Lucia, Luciana, and Lucina.
