I concur: it's probably a form of LucretiaThe masculine form of Lucretia would be Lucretius, by Latin standards. I'm not sure if Lucretius was ever actually used though.Lucas and Lucretia have nothing to do with each other etymologically. They only share two beginning letters, that's all.

Lucretius was indeed used. There was an important first-century BC philosophical poet by that name: Titus Lucretius Carus.
