History & Origin

Lorianna is a modern compound. Lori is a short form of Laura, from the Latin laurus — the laurel, worn by victors and poets; Anna descends from the Hebrew Hannah, 'grace.' Names of this shape flourished in twentieth-century America, and Lorianna is one of the softer ones. It is a compound, and we say so (said 'lor-ee-AN-uh').

It appears only rarely for girls in the U.S. Rare, flowing, and warm.

Did you know? Lorianna is a compound, and its two halves have very good histories: Lori comes from Laura and the laurel wreath of victory; Anna comes from Hannah, 'grace.' Put together, that is a generous thing to hand a child.
