Lauryn

Lauren

Latin · “Derived from the Latin Laurentius, meaning "from Laurentum" — a city near Rome whose name was associated with the laurel tree (laurus), itself a symbol of victory and honour in ancient Rome. Lauren emerged as a feminine English form in the 20th century, partly through the influence of actress Lauren Bacall, whose stage name helped popularise it.”

Audrey

“Audrey is an English feminine name, the Anglo-Norman form of the Old English Æthelþryð, composed of æthel meaning "noble" and þryð meaning "strength" — thus "noble strength." It was the name of Saint Audrey (Saint Æthelthryth), the seventh-century Abbess of Ely, whose legend linked cheap lace sold at her feast-day fair to the word "tawdry" — though the name itself retains its original nobility.”

Stanford

“Stanford is an English masculine given name derived from a surname, which in turn comes from a place name meaning "stony ford" — a crossing point on a river with a stony bottom, from the Old English stan (stone) and ford (ford, crossing). As a given name it carries associations with the prestigious American university, established by Leland Stanford in California.”

Lyric

“Lyric is an English given name derived from the Greek lyrikos meaning "singing to the lyre," from lyra (lyre). As an adjective it describes poetry meant to be sung or set to music, typically expressing personal emotion. As a given name it is a modern coinage in English-speaking countries, favored for its artistic and poetic associations.”

Dorothy

“Dorothy is the English form of the Greek Dorothea, composed of doron (gift) and theos (God) — thus "gift of God." It is essentially the same name as Theodora with the elements reversed. The name has been in use since the 15th century and became one of the most beloved American names of the early twentieth century, immortalized by L. Frank Baum's Dorothy Gale.”

Lawson

“Lawson is an English surname used as a masculine given name, a patronymic meaning "son of Lawrence," where Lawrence derives from the Latin Laurentius, referring to someone from Laurentum, a city whose name may come from laurus (laurel). As a given name it is found primarily in English-speaking countries, particularly in the American South and among those honoring family surnames.”

Garett

“Garett is an English and Irish masculine name, a variant spelling of Garrett, derived from the Old Germanic Gerhard meaning "strong spear" or "hard/brave with a spear," from ger (spear) and hard (hard, brave). The name was brought to Ireland by the Anglo-Normans and became embedded in Irish culture through the powerful FitzGerald family.”
