Another significant individual with this surname was Luigi Ciucci (1718-1796), an Italian mathematician and astronomer who made important contributions to the study of celestial mechanics. He was born in Pisa and spent much of his career teaching at the University of Pisa.

In the 19th century, a prominent member of the Ciucci family was Giuseppe Ciucci (1827-1899), an Italian politician and lawyer who served as a member of the Italian Parliament and played a role in the unification of Italy.
