Laurentine is a feminine given name of French origin, derived from the Latin word "laurus," which means "laurel." The laurel plant was sacred to the Roman god Apollo and was used to create wreaths for poets and heroes. Thus, Laurentine was traditionally associated with wisdom, poetry, and heroism. In France, the name gained popularity during the Middle Ages and has been used steadily ever since, although it remains relatively rare. Outside of France, Laurentine is not widely used but can be found in other French-speaking regions and among those with French heritage or cultural influence.
"Laurentine saw its peak in popularity during 1922 with five births that year."
