Lavone is of American origin, derived from Latin roots 'laurus' meaning laurel and 'vita' meaning life. It gained popularity during the mid-20th century in the United States. The name Lavone was often used for both boys and girls due to its unisex nature, although it has been more commonly associated with females over time.
The name Lavone experienced some popularity spikes throughout the 20th century, with a particular cluster of births occurring between 1933 and 1935, followed by another notable surge starting from 1988 until 1989. However, overall, its usage has been relatively infrequent, with total births reaching just 117 over the course of nearly eight decades.
