Talk:De Lucy

Etymology
Previously the article included
 * The family name is Gallo-Roman, mentioned in 616 as Luciacus, Lucy, Luci, Lucé derived from the Latin cognomen Lucius, meaning "born with the daylight" or Gaulish Lucus, Lucius, Lucco from Loco- / Luco- possibly "wolf" + suffix -(i)acum "place, property" of Gaulish origin.

although the name patently derives from the place name for an area held by the early members and has nothing to do with Latin cognomina or Gaulish surnames, apart from its possible importance to the place name itself. Cite references for that and phrase the discussion accordingly. — Llywelyn II   05:15, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
