Re: Lucine
in reply to a message by ciara23
I don't think it means moon; Lucy/Lucia/Lucille mean "light" and Lucine is from the same root. Selene does mean moon, you may have gotten them mixed up?
The only lucy type name I like is Lucia, though Lucille is also okay. Lucine sounds chemically with that "cine" ending. Like Lucite or lutein.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!

It’s a variant of Lusine, which comes from Armenian lusin (լուսին) meaning “moon” or “the moon”, not “light.” :)
And as another poster pointed out it’s pronounced loo-see-NEH!
