Lucy was not a person (if that's what your thinking), but the first fossil of the early humans (cavemen). The fossil was found in Africa and fossils have a lot to do with science. The reason why they (or the one person who found the fossil) named the fossil Lucy was probably because the fossil was a girl. But out of all the girl names why would they name it Lucy? That's their decision.
