Satan means opposer, or adversary. It is sometimes used as “The Satan” in the Old Testament to refer to a divine being who is working against God & his people

devil means slanderer.

lucifer is a latin word that was used to translate the Hebrew word Heylel.

in Isaiah 14, the Hebrew says “Heylel Ben Shakar”

there is dispute over what Heylel means. It could mean “Shining One”. Ben Shakar means “son of the morning”.

Jewish scholars attribute the 'lucifer' (false light/false Messiah)- to the King of Babylon and his cohorts in Isaiah 14- as well as Sennacharib.
Christian scholars attribute it to Satan and the anti-christ and his cohorts.
I believe both are right, if you put the OT and NT together.
(BTW.. in ancient Babylon they were into astrology, evil sorcery, idolatry, self aggrandizement as gods, molten image worship, and use of music against God and His people to steal their promises for money and occultic purposes. Sound familiar? Because the Bible says it's rising again as the end times anti-christ (s) the whole world loves- and that is 99.9 percent of what the entertainment industry and new age movement is into)

No wonders why Lady Gaga did a track titled "Babylon"

Excerpts below from: Who Lucifer REALLY Is And Why You Should Care

Contrary to Strong’s Concordance, the late 19th century periodical published by Moses Harman, and the Zionist-controlled Wikipedia—which are all WRONG—the name “Lucifer” does NOT mean “light bearer”.

Lucifer was an inhabitant of the Morning Star, which is a REAL planet. The Morning Star is home to Prince Michael, Gabriel, Uriel, Raphael, Raguel, Sarakiel (the Archangels), as well as millions of other immortal “Beings of Light”.

Thousands of years ago, Lucifer organized and led a coup attempt to seize control of the Universe. He managed to recruit a third of the inhabitants of the Morning Star (angels) into his army, using LIES to CONvince them.

References:
Isa. 14:12-17, Rev. 12:3-4, Rev. 12:7-9

-------

Lucifer is a name. "Satan" and "the devil" are titles which Lucifer earned because of his criminal actions, including his failed coup attempt which resulted in his banishment to the Earth. As @Beloved stated, those titles mean "the Opposer" and "the slanderer" or "liar".

Lucifer is also known as the great red dragon (red therefore being his color), because red is his color and a dragon uses its tail/tale to draw its victims into its clutches, and everything that comes out of its mouth burns its victims. A perfect description of lying Lucifer/Satan/the devil. Another description of Lucifer is as a lowly serpent, because of his forked tongue and the venom (lies) he uses to deceive.
