  • Story: Lauritz

    <p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT"><strong>Lauritz</strong> or Laurits is a male given name, the Danish variant of Laurence</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Meaning &amp; History</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0.5cm; border: medium none; padding: 0cm">From the Roman cognomen <em>Laurentius</em>, which meant &quot;from Laurentum&quot;. Laurentum was a city in ancient Italy, its name probably deriving from Latin <em>laurus</em> &quot;laurel&quot;. Saint Laurence was a 3rd-century deacon and martyr from Rome. According to tradition he was roasted alive on a gridiron because, when ordered to hand over the church&#39;s treasures, he presented the sick and poor. Due to the saint&#39;s popularity, the name came into general use in the Christian world (in various spellings).</p> <p style="margin-: 0.11cm; margin-bottom: 0.11cm; border: medium none; padding: 0cm"> In the Middle Ages this name was common in England, partly because of a second saint by this name, a 7th-century archbishop of Canterbury. Likewise it has been common in Ireland due to the 12th-century Saint Laurence O&#39;Toole (whose real name was <em>Lorc&aacute;n</em>). Since the 19th century the spelling <em>Lawrence</em> has been more common, especially in America.</p><p style="margin-: 0.11cm; margin-bottom: 0.11cm; border: medium none; padding: 0cm">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-: 0.11cm; margin-bottom: 0.11cm; border: medium none; padding: 0cm">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">LAURITZ</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">GENDER: Masculine</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">USAGE:Danish,Norwegian</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Meaning &amp; History</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Danish and Norwegian form of Laurentius</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">VARIANTS:</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Laurits (Danish)(Norwegian)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">OTHER LANGUAGES:</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Laurentius (Ancient Roman)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lloren&ccedil; (Catalan) Lovrenco (Croatian) Lloren&ccedil;</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Vavřinec (Czech)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lars,Laurens,Lourens (Dutch) </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Laurence, Lauren,Lawrence (English)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lars (Finnish)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Laurent (French) </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lourens (Frisian) </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lorenz (German)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lavrentius (Greek)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lőrinc (Hungarian)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">L&aacute;rus (Icelandic)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Labhr&aacute;s (Irish)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lorenzo (Italian)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lorencio (Medieval Spanish)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Wawrzyniec (Polish)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lourenco (Portuguese)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Laurențiu (Romanian)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lavrentiy, Lavrenti, Lavrenty (Russian) </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lars,Lorens (Scandinavian) </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Labhrainn (Scottish) </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Vavrinec (Slovak) </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lovrenc (Slovene)</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">Lorenzo (Spanish)</p> <p style="margin-: 0.11cm; margin-bottom: 0.11cm; border: medium none; padding: 0cm">&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" align="LEFT">&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
