Lorine Origin and Meaning
The name Lorine is a girl's name.
Lorine is a feminine name with French origins, functioning as a variation of Laura or Lorena. Deriving ultimately from the Latin 'laurus' meaning 'laurel tree' - a symbol of victory and honor in ancient Rome. This particular form gained modest popularity in the United States during the early 20th century but has become less common in recent decades, giving it a vintage charm. The name has a gentle, melodic quality with its soft consonants and flowing rhythm. Lorine carries associations with elegance and classic femininity while remaining less frequently used than its more common variants. The name's historical usage combined with its current rarity makes it appealing for parents seeking something traditional yet distinctive.
