Lorene is French in Origin.
Lorene is an English feminine name, pronounced loh-REEN, that emerged in the late 19th century as a spelling variant of Loreen/Laureen and a cousin to Lauren, Laurel, and Laura. These forms trace back to Latin laurus, the bay laurel that symbolized honor and victory in antiquity. It is also used as a streamlined form of Lorraine, the French region name (from medieval Lotharingia, 'realm of Lothar'), which helped propel its early popularity in English.
Usage peaked in the United States between the 1910s and 1940s before fading, giving Lorene a vintage, understated feel today. Variants and short forms include Loreen, Lurene, Laureen, Loraine/Lorraine, Lorena, Loren (unisex), Lori, Lorie, and Rena; related international equivalents are Laura, Laure, Lauren, and Laurel. Depending on derivation, the name's meaning is 'laurel; honor, victory' or 'from Lorraine/realm of Lothar.'
