What do you think? There are umpteen nicknames for when he's little to make it suitable for all ages

I love it, but bear in mind nicknames as all the Lawrence's I've known are all known as Loz.

It's a great name, really like it .

We have a great mate who lives with us called Laurie. Top man, annoyingly good at everything! So I like the name because of him.

Love it

Lovely!

My friend has a Laurence - nn is Lance.
I also knew a cool grown up one who went by Ren.

Love it, prefer the Laurence spelling though as I like Laurie more than Lawrie.

Fab name - classic but not over-used.

Love it with nn Laurie or Lawrie.

Doje · 13/05/2017 20:39

Love it. I think it's a really strong sounding name.And love Lawrie for a nickname. I also love Laurie for a girl.

I really like it.

I prefer the Lawrence spelling, as Laurence makes me think of the French girl name and Llewelyn-Bowen Grin.

Mike he's Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen

user1459464195 · 13/05/2017 16:45

Love it and all the various nicknames. Enzo and Lance are my particular favourites.

Not a name I'd choose but if you like it then why not. Oh yes. Lawrence Llewellyn-Bowen. Don't.
