Levarn is an uncommon, yet appealing male given name of American origin. It is derived from two other names: Leverne and Lavern. The name Leverne itself is a combination of the English word 'lever', meaning a device that turns movement into force, and the French suffix '-erne'. Lavern, on the other hand, is believed to be a variation of the Latin name 'Laurence', which means 'from Laurentum' or 'from the laurel tree'. Therefore, Levarn can be interpreted as someone who brings strength or change through wisdom and dignity. The name has gained some recognition due to its use in popular culture, such as the character Levarn Davis from the television series 'The Wire'. However, it remains relatively unique, with fewer than 100 individuals in the United States sharing this name.
The name Levarn appears to have been popular among parents twice during this period; once around the late 1930s and again in the mid-1940s.
