Loree Origin and Meaning

The name Loree is a girl's name.

Loree is a delicate feminine name that likely developed as a variant of Lori or Laurie, which are diminutives of Laura or Lauren. These names ultimately derive from the Latin 'laurus,' meaning 'laurel tree' – a symbol of victory and honor in ancient Rome. This spelling variation offers a distinctive touch while maintaining the melodic, feminine quality of the original. While never among the most popular names, Loree enjoyed modest usage particularly during the 1950s and 60s in the United States. The name carries a sweet, vintage charm that feels both familiar and uncommon. Its brief, gentle sound makes it accessible while the unique spelling gives it individuality.
