- Lorena Meaning
- Spanish, Portuguese and Italian form of Lorraine. Latinized form of Lauren. This name was first brought to public attention in America by the song 'Lorena' (1856), written by Joseph Webster, who was said to have created the name as an anagram of Lenore (from the character in Poe's poem 'The Raven'). Lorena is an Italian, Spanish and Portuguese variant of Lorraine. Lorraine originates in French language and means "woman from Lorraine". Lorraine is a region in northern France. In the English-speaking countries it has been used since the 19th century and was once fairly popular in the United States. Lately its usage has declined.
