Lorencz Coat of Arms and Surname Origin

Clerks wrote Lorenz in many ways, and Lorencz is one that stuck. Read literally, Lorencz points to “From Laurentius (Lawrence)”.

Family crest and blazon

A coat of arms belongs to a particular family line rather than to everyone named Lorencz, so the heraldry linked to Lorenz is a starting point, not an automatic right.

How the spelling arose

Records show Lorencz as one of the forms Lorenz took over time. Census takers and immigration officers often wrote what they heard. Related forms: Lorentz, Lorenze and Lorenzen.
