Laurenia is in Origin.

Laurenia is a modern feminine given name rooted in Latin. It relates to Laurentia/Laurencia, the feminine counterpart of Laurentius, a Roman cognomen meaning “person from Laurentum,” later associated with laurus, the laurel tree symbolizing victory and honor. As an elaboration of Lauren with a lyrical -ia ending, Laurenia preserves the laurel imagery - triumph, wisdom, poetic acclaim - while sounding contemporary and international.

The wider Laur- family spread through Europe via the cult of Saint Lawrence, sustaining use from the Middle Ages onward. Laurenia itself is rare, recorded in recent decades as an ornamental variant in English-speaking countries and occasionally in Romance-language contexts. Related forms include Lauren, Laurene, Laurena, Laurina, Laurentia, and Laurencia; possible nicknames are Laurie, Renia, or Reni. The result is a name that marries classical heritage with a fresh, melodious profile.
