Here at The Night Watch NG, we took it upon ourselves to find out the meaning of Laurel and we found 3 different meanings to the beautiful name;
- any of a number of shrub sand other plants with dark green glossy leaves.
- an aromatic evergreen shrub related to the baytree, several kindsof which form forests in tropical and warm countries.
- the foliage of the baytree woven into a wreath or crown and worn on the head as an emblem of victory or mark of honour in classical times.
However, according to name berry, The name Laurel is a girl’s name of Latin origin which means “laurel tree”.
Laurel relates back to the laurel wreath signifying success and peace in ancient Rome.
So in other words, Laurel as a name, which means “Laurel Tree” apparently signifies success and peace, what a wonderful choice of name from Laura and her hubby to Laurel.
