Queen
“Queen is an English feminine given name derived directly from the common noun queen, from Old English cwen meaning "woman," "wife," or "queen." As a given name it appears in African-American naming traditions as both a title-name and an expression of dignity and majesty. It may also originate as a shortening of the surname MacQueen.”
Lauryn
“Lauryn is a modern variant of Lauren, an English feminine form derived from the Latin Laurentius (Lawrence), referring to someone from the city of Laurentum in ancient Italy, whose name in turn derives from laurus meaning "laurel." The laurel wreath was the symbol of victory and poetic achievement in ancient Rome.”
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.”

As a given name it became internationally famous through J.D.
