Originating from the United States, Lurlean is a unique and distinctive given name of unknown etymology. It gained popularity during the mid-20th century but has since become quite rare, perhaps adding to its allure as an uncommon choice for parents seeking something special for their child.
The name Lurlean experienced its peak popularity during the early 1920s, with a notable spike in 1920 (18 births) and 1921 (16 births). However, its usage declined significantly from the mid-1920s onwards, with fewer than 10 births recorded per year between 1923 and 1957. The name's popularity seems to have been short-lived, as it was relatively uncommon before and after this period.
