Meaning & Origin of Lupita
Meaning: Pet form of Guadalupe.
Origin: Spanish.
A common claim: Because of the 'lup-' sound, Lupita/Guadalupe is often said to mean 'wolf' or 'wolf valley.' Actually: That rests on just one disputed theory about the place name Guadalupe (Arabic 'wādī' + Latin 'lupus'); scholars offer other derivations, and 'wolf' isn't a confirmed meaning of Lupita itself.
