📖 Sobre Laurent

Laurent é a forma francesa do latim Laurentius, derivado de Laurentum e associado ao loureiro — símbolo clássico de vitória e favor divino. São Lourenço de Roma conferiu-lhe um prestígio espiritual duradouro na Europa cristã. Na França, o nome atingiu o 2.º lugar em 1968–1969, com quase 20.000 nascimentos por ano, tornando-se um dos nomes mais marcantes do baby boom francês. Permanece popular em comunidades francófonas ao redor do mundo, ao lado de variantes como Lorenzo, Laurence e Lars.
