Lorina

Meaning of Lorina

Lorina is a feminine name rooted in the Latin laurus, meaning “laurel,” the ancient symbol of victory and honor, and over time it also came to evoke the historic region of Lorraine in northeastern France. As a graceful elaboration of Laura or a variant of Lorraine, it carries both classical resonance and a subtle European flair. Although it enjoyed modest use in the mid-twentieth century, Lorina has remained relatively uncommon in recent decades, lending it an air of distinctive charm. Pronounced luh-REE-nuh, this name combines understated elegance with a quiet nod to literary and historical traditions, making it an appealing choice for those seeking a timeless yet individual moniker.
