Llorente

The surname Llorente (or Lorente) is derived from the Latin name Laurentius (Lorenzo in Spanish). This surname scattered over almost the entire Iberian Peninsula due to the reconquest, has an Aragonese origin recorded under different forms: Lorien, Lorient (sobrarbesa place names), Lorent or Llorent (forms in medieval Aragonese Ebro Valley). Because Castilian became increasingly important, the surnames came to be pronounced with an -e at the end. Provided by Wikipedia
