History & Origin

Lorrin restyles Lauren and Loren, both traced through Laurence to the Latin 'laurus', 'laurel'. The doubled r lends it the flavor of an old family surname.

It appears from about 1972 and reaches its faint peak around 1993, thinning out by the mid-two-thousands. It stayed rare, a minor spelling beside the far more common Lauren.

Did you know? The laurel behind Lauren and Lorrin was the ancient symbol of triumph handed to winning athletes and poets - the same wreath that gives us the word 'laureate'.
