Loredana
(Redirected from Loredana (disambiguation))
Loredana is a feminine given name, claimed to be invented by French author Lucile Aurore Dupin (George Sand) in her novel Mattea (1833), and later used by Luciano Zuccoli in L'amore di Loredana (1908). It may have been inspired by the real-life Venetian surname Loredan, itself from the toponym Loreo, Veneto, which originated from its Latin name Lauretum,[1] meaning laurel. It is a common name in Italy and Romania.[2] There is a related version without the opening letter l, Oredana, because is wrongly perceived as an article (L'Oredana) and thus removed. The name may refer to:
- Loredana (actress) (1924–2016), Italian actress
- Loredana Bertè (born 1950), Italian singer
- Loredana Boboc, Romanian gymnast
- Loredana De Petris (born 1957), Italian politician
- Loredana Dinu, Romanian épée fencer
- Loredana Errore, Romanian-born Italian singer
- Loredana Groza, Romanian singer
- Loredana Lanzani (born 1965), Italian-American mathematician
