Locklan

For the little one who thrives on land, by sea, and on lakes, Locklan is the perfect name. This masculine moniker has Gaelic origins and is one of many respellings of the ancient Gaelic personal name, Lachlann. Combining the elements loch, meaning “lake,” and lann, meaning “land,” Locklan directly translates to “from the land of the lakes.” Another possible meaning is “one who dwells at the fjord-land,” so if baby Locklan calls a place near the water home, their name will be even more fitting! Those from Scandinavia or Norway may have also been referred to by the name Locklan or Lochlann throughout the centuries, a link to the Viking history of Europe that little Locklan can learn about someday.
