Larse Origin and Meaning
The name Larse is a boy's name.
Larse is a variation of Lars, a Scandinavian name with deep Nordic roots. Lars itself is derived from the Latin name Laurentius, meaning 'from Laurentum' or 'crowned with laurel,' symbolizing victory and honor. The added 'e' in Larse gives the traditional name a softer ending while maintaining its strong Nordic character. This uncommon variation has a distinctive quality while preserving connections to Scandinavian heritage. Though rare in most English-speaking countries, Larse carries the same strong, concise appeal as Lars but with a subtle uniqueness. The name conveys qualities of strength and simplicity with a touch of the uncommon.
