The Prefix Luc- generally refers to "light" (Latin,
Italian, Spanish, and I have seen a couple of others) and I
always thought it was referring to the family's light
complexion and almost white hair.



I've always figured the character got his name from the Lucius/Arthur stories
of Camelot. The noble King the malevolent Emperor whose main care was for
wealth. Etc. etc. You certainly can draw some vague similarities in the
stories.
