Origin & History
Patronymic surname meaning 'son of Lars', the Scandinavian form of Laurentius, derived from the Latin 'Laurentum', a city name associated with laurel trees and symbolising victory or honour. Saint Lawrence (San Lorenzo), martyred in 258 AD, was widely venerated in medieval Europe, making his name — and thus its Scandinavian derivative Lars — popular throughout Norway and Denmark. Larsen is among the top five most common Norwegian surnames and features prominently in Norwegian-American communities along the American Pacific Northwest.
