Lannie is a gender-neutral name with a variety of origins and meanings to inspire your little one. If you’re looking to connect baby to the earth, this name can be a short variant of the Old German Roland, meaning “renowned land,” or the Old English Landon, meaning “ridge” or “long hill.” Lannie can also serve as a cute nickname for the Hawaiian Alana, meaning “awakening,” and the Irish Alan, meaning “little rock.” For a name that gives baby a restless love for life or a sturdy, rock-solid demeanor, Lannie can get the job done. Lannie may also have connections to the Latin name Laurence and Latin word laurus, meaning “laurel tree” or “sweet bay tree.” Since this tree’s fragrant leaves and branches were used to create crowns for competition winners, it has become a symbol of victory. Whether baby prefers to explore different parts of the world or relax among the trees, Lannie can make for a successful fit with them.
