Lavonte
Meaning of Lavonte
Lavonte, a masculine given name emerging from late twentieth-century Anglo-American naming conventions, integrates the French-derived prefix “La” with the root “Vonte,” itself a phonetic adaptation of Levon—an Armenian appellation denoting “lion.” Phonetically articulated in American English as /ləˈvɑnt/, its statistical trajectory, according to Social Security Administration records, indicates that usage has remained relatively modest—peaking in the early 1980s at rank 679 before stabilizing in the lower nine-hundreds in recent decades; in 2024, twelve newborns were registered with the name, corresponding to rank 912. Its morphological construction, characterized by prefixation and phonemic variation, exemplifies contemporary trends in Anglo-American personal nomenclature, wherein cross-cultural elements and inventive affixation converge to produce distinctive yet accessible identifiers, and carries associative connotations of determination and leadership.
