Love adding a modern twist to old classics? Then Lanae might just be the perfect girl's name for your precious bundle! This beautiful name has mixed origins, spanning across Europe and the US. It is a unique spin on the name Lana, which stems from the Breton Alana or the Russian Svetlana. With meanings like “little rock,” “handsome,” “light,” and “world,” choosing Lanae is an ode to your love and adoration for your doting little one.
