Lorrie is English, Latin in Origin.
Lorrie is an English diminutive most commonly of Lorraine, and by extension of Laura and Loretta; more rarely it echoes Laurie, the pet form of Laurence. Lorraine ultimately refers to the French region named for the medieval Lotharingia, "the realm of Lothar," while Laura derives from Latin laurus, "laurel," the classical emblem of honor; Loretta is a diminutive of Laura, "little laurel." Lorrie is used chiefly as a feminine given name.
In Anglophone countries the spelling Lorrie appeared in the early 20th century and rose sharply in mid-century, peaking in the United States during the 1950s-70s alongside Lori and Laurie, then settling into occasional use. Variant spellings and short forms include Lori, Lorie, Lorri, Laurie, and Lauri; related formal names are Lorraine, Laura, Loretta, and Lorena; cognates include Lauren and Laurence. Lorrie carries either a regional heritage sense or the evergreen "laurel" meaning, depending on its source.
