Lodena, derived from the Old English elements 'hlūd' meaning loud or famous, and 'ēn' meaning joy, is a unique and distinctive given name of Scandinavian origin. It was more prevalent during the Middle Ages but has since become quite rare, lending it an air of antiquity and exclusivity.
The name Lodena had a notable start with 11 births recorded in 1921. However, this peak was not maintained consistently over the following years. There were fewer births each year afterwards, with 8 in 1922 and 5 in both 1923 and 1928. After a gap of several years, there were another 5 births recorded in 1935. In total, there have been 34 births named Lodena since 1921.
