In 2025, 9 babies in England and Wales were named Lucille. In the US, 1,197 were, though that figure is from 2017 — the most recent full year we hold. Its US peak was 7,988 in 1920.
Looking further back: between 1880 and 2008, Lucille was most common in 1915, when it went to 0.68% of American babies of that sex. Squarely vintage-revival territory.
