Loreal Origin and Meaning
The name Loreal is a girl's name meaning "the halo, beauty".
The beauty brand name L’Oréal is rumored to derive from L’Auréale (literally translating to "the halo"), a popular hairstyle in France in the early 1900s. The first product created by Eugène Schueller, who would eventually go on to found L’Oréal, was a hair dye called Oréal. It is related to the French word for gold, or.
L'Oreal has been used as a girl name since 1970 and peaked in 1989 when it was given to 83 baby girls.
