Etymology of LucianWhat does the name Lucian mean? The French surname Lucian is of patronymic origin, as it is derived from the personal name of the original bearer's father. The name Lucian is most likely derived from Saint Lucianus, an apostle and martyr in the third and fourth centuries. The name was common to name a child after a revered saint, many people whose father's were named after Lucianus used the surname Lucian. Early Origins of the Lucian familyThe surname Lucian was first found in the region of Marne in the northern province of Champagne. However, as the surname is derived from a personal name, it was common throughout most of France. The Lusignan variant hails from Lusignan, in Poitou, western France and dates back to the 10th century. The House of Lusignan was a royal house of French origin, which at various times ruled several principalities in Europe. They reached their zenith from the 12th through the 15th centuries. The Château de Lusignan located in Lusignan, Vienne département, France was the ancestral seat of the House of Lusignan. Unfortunately, little can be found of the castle today.
