My DD is Lucia and we say "lu-see-ah." Spanish pronunciation (Lucia is the number one girls name in Spain btw). Great name!

SO interesting.
I grew up in the northeast with a friend name Lucia- Lu-chi-ah her mom was first generation Italian. In my 30's I moved to the south and met 2 people named Lucia- Lou-sha. had not heard the Lu-see-uh pronunciation until today. They all sound pretty. |

I only knew one as well and she pronounced it the same. I have a very positive association with the name as she was a very kind person. |

People from Spain would actually pronounce it "Lu-thee-ah." Spanish lisp. People from South/Central America who speak Spanish would say "Lu-see-ah"

Boy? Lucia is a girl name with the feminine ending -ia. The corresponding boy's name is Lucio. That said, I have known 3, of different generations (one is a senior, one is a teenager and one is toddler/infant). All were LOO-shya (pretty close to the LOO-sha mentioned above, but a definite 'y' in the middle). |
