History & Origin
Floriene is an elaborated form of Florine, a diminutive of Florence or Flora, from Latin flos, 'flower'. Flowery Latinate names were fashionable in the early twentieth century, and softened spellings like Floriene grew from that same blossoming root.
It was always a rarity, appearing at a few dozen girls a year with a faint peak around 1917 and a short span into the 1940s. Floriene reads as a dainty period name; while Florence has revived, this delicate elaboration has stayed in the past.
