Meaning & history of son's name
My son's first name is LAFRAS and he is caucasion/european. His name is a family first name that has been passed on for several generations. I've been told (right or wrong) that it is of Belgian or French origin but I am unsure. I also do not know the meaning or history of the name and whether it was possibly derived from another name.

Laphras and LavransI googled Laphras and found some (very few) French links.Other than that it could be an "interpretation" of Lavrans - a Scandinavian form of Lawrence. But that is just a guess.
