Lightgiver

A parallel to the roots of the Latin name Lucius-"Bringer of Light".
One who is bestowed this nickname often has a manner of shedding light on a confusing situation. However, they are usually very complex and sometimes the true meaning is misunderstood. They are people of great strength, compassion, and ideas. Finding a lightgiver in life is rare so when one is found they should not be let loose easily, for they will always make right of their complicated tasks in due time.
-"The doctor was such a lightgiver, he told us everything we needed to know."

"Dude that explanation was much longer than it needed to be, he must be a lightgiver"

Lightie is British slang for mixed-race girl.

It's used as a term of endearment but is anti-poc by nature as it seeks to make mixed-race women (particularly those who have partial black lineage) seem 'better' than black women because of their appearance.

For example, lighties would be the following:

1) Jorja Smith
2) Mahalia
3) Latesha Grace
4) Erica Fontaine
5) Maya Jama
6) Any woman/girl on instagram with silky curly hair, biracial or multi-racial, sometimes has different colored eyes like green or blue, & fair skin complexion

Most grime emcees used to say that lighties were what we should desire and the ultimate woman was a lightie.

Lighties are stereotyped in good ways but sometimes are used as props for colorism.

They're praised for having non-black features while being a bit black-ish.

Most black athlete and entertainers have kids with or date lighties or have said they would like to: anyone from Stormzy has said they love lighties to Anthony Joshua who said he loved lighties. Most Black British men prefer lighties.
"Nah man, I only date lighties. I don't date black girls. Lighties have the best hair and best looks. She's buff bro.. bare lighties.."

lighttime daytime 

Anytime of the new day where it is not dark.
I wish it was lighttime daytime right now, it is really dark at 1:28am.
The last name of the cutest girl I’ve ever met. The last name of the girl I want to marry, the girl I want to have a family with and has been with me through everything. The girl who’s put me first no matter what was going on in her life. Not only is she the sweetest girl I know, she’s also the hottest, I can’t control myself around her and I want to spend every night laying next to her, if not on top😉
Lightle will end up changing to McNiven, with me.
