Laurella

The name ‘Laurella’ is primarily given to girls. It can be seen as an alternative to the name ‘Laurell’, which is gender-neutral. This name is said to have originated from the Latin ‘Laurus’. However, this name has its roots in Old Norman, Old French, and Middle English. The meaning of Laurella is ‘honorable’, ‘victorious’, and ‘successful’. Laurel, a bay plant from which this name is derived, is often considered to be a symbol of victory and triumph. The reason behind this symbol dates back to the age of ancient Greece. The winners of ancient Olympic games were bestowed with laurel wreaths. Also, the great men in poetry and sports were given laurel wreaths then. Besides this, the laurel has significance in Greek and Roman Mythology. According to Greek mythology, there is a popular story of Apollo and Daphne. There was a bit of argy-bargy between Apollo, the god of the Sun, and Cupid, the god of love. To avenge Apollo, Cupid sent a love arrow toward Apollo to love Daphne, a tree spirit. Cupid also sent an anti-love arrow toward Daphne so as not to reciprocate the love. On seeing the sufferings of Apollo, Daphne created a laurel wreath from her leaves for Apollo. Some sources also state Apollo himself created the laurel wreath as a token of his love.

Lucky

Laurella lucky number is 1.

1 symbolizes a pioneering spirit, independent nature, and innate leadership capabilities. On a bad day, 1 can be a bit bossy or boastful, hiding any insecurities behind over-developed self-importance. 1 must remember that although it is first, it can very quickly become the loneliest number. Even the most autonomous 1s need the support of their friends, family, and lovers.
