Lubuntu means Lighter Ubuntu?

Hello.
Lubuntu naming meaning is Lighter Ubuntu ?

Thanks for reply.

The L use to stand for LXDE but in later releases now means LxQt desktop.

I tend to agree with @tenplus1 in that the L came from the desktop itself, originally LXDE and in recent times LXQt.

Lubuntu is described on these pages

And LXQt definition maybe found here

Lubuntu is a living project, which means its aims & goals can change with time, a part of which is different people helping with the project and making it achieve those team goals.

Possibly worth a read also is this - https://lubuntu.me/taking-a-new-direction/ , it’s a little old now, but I think it still applies
