She may come after biblical times, but isn't there a Saint Lucy (Santa Lucia)?

Maybe Lucille is a family name, like one of Eric's or Annie's
grandparents.

The Camdens decided to name their children after prominent people in the
Bible who had books named after them. The obvious first choices would be the
"4 gospels," Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. They named their first son
Matthew John, because Matthew Mark sounded too alliterative, and Matthew Luke
sounded like a refugee from "Friends." Their first daughter became Mary,
being only one letter away from Mark, and, of course, also being the name of
several prominent women in the New Testament. Her full name would be Mary
Elizabeth, representing Jesus' mother and grandmother. Their second daughter
was named Lucy, comprising the first two letters of Luke, and obviously short
for Lucius, a Latin translation of Luke, or (feminized), Lucia (also a
Saint's name--Santa Lucia). Her name might be Lucia Magdalena, which has a
nice Italian sound about it, and would represent Mary Magdalene, one of the
more prominent members of the Jesus entourage. Having covered the major
gospel writers, for the second son, they used the name of Jesus' best bud,
Simon Peter, which I'm quite certain is Simon's full name. For the third
daughter, the Camdens switched to the Old Testament, and named her for the
only (?) female-named book of the Bible, Ruth. I would imagine her full name
is Ruth Naomi, after the biblical Ruth's mother-in-law, who played a
prominent role in that story. And finally (we would hope...?), David and
Samuel, who also are Old Testament bigwigs. I'll leave it up to the crowd to
decide what their middle names are. However, I liked someone's idea that
they were named Sam and Dave, after the musicians, which would make sense,
considering the Reverend's past "profession" as a band member.
This is totally fictional, of course, and may be entirely different from the
show's own "bible,", but until we hear otherwise from the authorities, I'm now
satisfied that I "know" the truth. Feel free to use these explanations, or
share your own ideas. Thanks to everyone whose postings I borrowed from!

I'll bet he has a Catholic bible in his bookcase. He had the book on Buddhism
that Lucy wanted when she was trying to decide what religion she was going to be
(like she REALLY had a choice).
