Lautaro

Meaning of Lautaro

Lautaro is a distinctive and culturally rich name of Mapuche origin, primarily used in Spanish-speaking countries. Pronounced as "low-TAH-roh," this name carries historical significance, most notably associated with Lautaro, a 16th-century Mapuche leader who played a crucial role in the resistance against Spanish conquest in Chile. Despite its deep roots and powerful connotations, Lautaro remains relatively rare in the United States, appearing sporadically on the baby name charts over the years. It has seen occasional use since 2002, with its highest rank being 5277 in 2005. The name's unique sound and strong heritage make it an appealing choice for parents seeking a meaningful and uncommon name for their son.
