Lasaun Origin and Meaning

The name Lasaun is a boy's name.

Lasaun is a modern masculine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a variant of Lashaun or LaShawn, names that combine the French prefix 'La' (meaning 'the') with 'Shaun/Shawn' (an Irish name meaning 'God is gracious'). Alternatively, it could be influenced by names like Shaun with the addition of 'La-' as a distinctive prefix, a naming pattern that became more common in the United States during the latter half of the 20th century. The name began appearing in U.S. records primarily from the 1970s-80s onward but remains relatively uncommon. Lasaun has a contemporary sound while incorporating elements that connect it to more established naming traditions. The pronunciation typically emphasizes the second syllable (luh-SAWN).
