Lucyll is Latin in Origin.

Lucyll is a modern, stylistic respelling of Lucille, the French form of Latin Lucilla, a diminutive of Lucia derived from lux, “light.” The name therefore carries the meanings “light,” “little light,” or by extension “born at daylight.” While the spelling is unconventional, it preserves the same etymology as its older relatives across Romance and English traditions.

Forms of this family were used throughout the Roman world and in medieval Europe through the cult of St. Lucia of Syracuse, later flourishing in France as Lucile/Lucille and entering English use in the 18th–19th centuries, with a mid-20th‑century boost from entertainer Lucille Ball. Lucyll remains rare and contemporary in feel. Close variants and cognates include Lucille, Lucile, Lucilla, Lucia/Lucía, Lucy, Lucie, Luce, and Lucinda; masculine counterparts are Lucius and Luciano.
