Saint Lucian Creole (ISO 639-3 acf) shares Sent Lisi with Haitian Creole. Belarusian, Hebrew, Urdu and Tajik list several transcriptions each.

02 · NamesU+004C LATIN CAPITAL LETTER L

Sent Lisi, Santa Lucía, Sent-Ljusija: translating the saint

In English the short and the full name are the same, Saint Lucia. In Saint Lucian Creole it is Sent Lisi, the same as in Haitian Creole, and Castries becomes Kastwi. The exonyms show what each language does with the saint. Romance languages translate her: Santa Lucía in Spanish, Sainte-Lucie in French, Santa Lúcia in Portuguese, Sfânta Lucia in Romanian. Slavic languages do the same with Sveta Lucija in Croatian and Serbian, Svatá Lucie in Czech and Svätá Lucia in Slovak.

Russian and the Cyrillic languages of the former Soviet Union mostly copy the English sound, Сент-Люсия (Sent-Ljusija), and list the translated Святая Люсия only as a second form. Greek has Αγία Λουκία beside Σάντα Λουτσία, Arabic سان لوسيا and سانت لوسيا, Japanese both セント・ルシア and セントルシア, Chinese 聖露西亞 (Shèng Lúxīyà). Esperanto translates the name as Sankta Lucio, Welsh as Sant Lwsia, Scottish Gaelic as Naomh Lùisia.

Castries is left as written in English, French and German. Elsewhere the final s is often dropped, as in Russian Кастри, Latvian and Haitian Kastri, or kept, as in Lithuanian Kastris and Japanese カストリーズ (Kasutorīzu).
