Lorrin is an English variant of the Latin-origin name Laurence, ultimately derived from the Roman family name Laurentius, meaning from Laurentum, a city whose name is associated with the Latin laurus, meaning laurel. The laurel plant carried strong associations with honor and victory in classical antiquity. The name gained widespread use in the Christian world largely through Saint Lawrence, the third-century martyr. Related forms include Lawrence, Laurence, Loren, and Lorin.
