Lawry Name Details

The name Lawry is a variant of the name Lawrence. It is derived from the Roman cognomen Laurentius, which means 'from Laurentum,' a city in ancient Italy. The name Lawrence itself is derived from the Latin word laurus, meaning 'laurel' or 'crowned with laurel.' In Roman times, a crown of laurel leaves was a symbol of honor and victory, and as such, the name Lawrence came to be associated with achievement and distinction. Over time, the name Lawry emerged as a relatively rare variation of Lawrence, mainly used as a boys' name.
