The laurel tree has historically been associated with victory, honor, and accomplishment, often symbolized by laurel wreaths awarded to victors in ancient Greece and Rome. The name Lowran carries a sense of nobility and distinction, reflecting the qualities linked to laurels as symbols of success.

      The roots of the name Lawrence date back to the Roman empire, derived from the Latin Laurentius, which directly translates to “from Laurentum,” a place named for laurel trees.
