Lauren is mostly a feminine given name. The name's meaning may be "laurel tree", "sweet of honor", or "wisdom". It is derived from the French name Laurence, a feminine version of Laurent, which is in turn derived from the Roman surname Laurentius.

Although originally a male name, the name's popularity with females has been widely attributed to actress Lauren Bacall (born Betty Joan Perske). It is a popular name in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Australia. In the U.S. the name ranked #170 in 2018 and #148 in 2017. The name was most popular in the U.S. in the 1980s and 1990s.
