Lannie Origin and Meaning
The name Lannie is a boy's name.
Lannie is a versatile name used for both males and females, though traditionally more common for boys. It originated as a diminutive form of names like Lancelot, Landon, or Orlando for boys, and Lana, Alana, or Elaine for girls. In its masculine usage, it has connections to Scottish and Irish heritage, possibly derived from the Gaelic 'lan' meaning 'full' or 'complete.' Lannie gained modest popularity in America during the early to mid-20th century, particularly in rural and Southern communities. The name has a friendly, approachable quality with its soft sounds and informal feel. While never reaching mainstream popularity, Lannie maintains a homespun charm and unpretentious character that feels both vintage and accessible.
