Lavernon is an uncommon yet distinctive given name of Latin origin, derived from the Roman family name Laurenus. It is a variant spelling of Laurence, which itself is derived from the Latin 'Laurenti-us', meaning 'from Laurentum'. This name was popular among early Christians due to its association with Saint Lawrence, one of the church's first martyrs in Rome around 258 AD. The name has been used sparingly throughout history but is not widely known today, making it a unique choice for those seeking an uncommon yet classic name for their child or themselves.
"The name Lavernon was given to five babies born in the year 1920."
