Lachlann Origin and Meaning

The name Lachlann is a boy's name.

Lachlann is a masculine name of Scottish Gaelic origin, a variant of Lachlan, meaning 'from the land of lakes' or 'warrior from the land of lochs.' This traditional Highland name has deep roots in Scottish clan history, particularly associated with Clan MacLachlan. The double 'n' spelling represents a more traditional Gaelic form, though less common than the single 'n' version. Pronounced LAKH-luhn (with the 'ch' as in 'loch'), the name carries a strong Celtic heritage and conjures images of Scotland's rugged landscapes. While well-established in Scotland, Lachlann remains relatively uncommon internationally. The name has seen modest growth in popularity in English-speaking countries as parents increasingly seek authentic cultural names with historical significance. Its distinctive spelling ensures individuality while maintaining pronounceability.
