Lorette is a French name for girls as a variant of Laurette and Loreto. Laurette derives from the Latin word laurus, meaning “laurel,” while Loreto stems from lauretum, meaning "laurel grove." In Ancient Rome, leaves from the laurel tree symbolized victory, so emperors, athletes, and scholars alike wore laurel wreaths to signify triumph. If you want your child to be a winner in life, this could be the perfect name for them! Many names derive from these roots, including Laura, Lori, Loretta, and more. Lorette has a vintage feel to it that makes it stand out from other laurel-inspired names.
