Lygia is a feminine name with Brazilian Portuguese roots. A variant of Ligia and Ligeia, this name comes from the Greek word ligys, meaning “clear-voiced,” “clear-toned,” or “whistling.” This can always remind your little one to strengthen their voice and express their thoughts in an articulate way. If you've got a love for Greek mythology, can connect baby to Ligea, one of the Nereids, and Ligeia, one of the Sirens. For a name that inspires baby’s beautiful voice or love for the water, Lygia can make for plenty of inspiration.
