[Facts] Lacona
This is my recently deceased grandmother's name; we've never been able to find out where it came from, or if my great-grandparents just made it up. Her middle name was normal for the year she was born in (Gladys) and her sisters were all named things like Ida. We have very limited information on it, considering (unfortunately) my grandmother never knew where her parents, grandparents, etc. were from. Her surname was originally Arndt. We are fairly sure that it is female, however.
All help is appreciated. :)

Where was your grandmother born?
This has a good chance of being from the place name Lacona, which is the name of towns in New York and Iowa, and probably itself is a variation of Laconia, the name of a region in southern Greece:
