History & Origin

Laporscha is a contemporary American coinage, the ornamental La- opening paired with Porscha. The second element plainly echoes the car name Porsche, a fashionable sound of the era, and the name was chosen for that flair rather than descended from an older word.

It appeared only briefly in the late nineteen-eighties, given to only about sixteen girls a year at its peak, and did not last. A girl named Laporscha then would be in her thirties today.

Did you know? Laporscha is one of a set of La- names that families assembled from stylish contemporary sounds in the nineteen-eighties, here borrowing the ring of the word Porsche rather than any traditional root.
