Laiken Origin and Meaning
The name Laiken is a girl's name.
Laiken is a contemporary feminine name with American origins, though it's occasionally used for boys as well. This modern creation likely emerged in the late 20th century as part of the trend toward surnames as first names and inventive spellings. Laiken may be a variation of Lake or an alternative spelling of Laken, potentially meaning 'from the lake.' The name has a fresh, crisp sound with its short syllables and clean consonants. While never reaching high popularity rankings, Laiken saw modest usage starting in the 1990s, particularly in the United States. Parents might choose this name for its contemporary feel, nature connection, and distinctive yet accessible quality.
