I looked up my daughter's name in a baby book that I purchased. Loren also meant Lorraine (which) is my mothers' name which is why I named her Loren....means to be crowned with laurels....and her middle name, Gabrielle, means devoted to God. I like this name because it truly has a nice ring in addition to a real meaning.
