I think Christopher Rene Lawrence would be fine. Rene is also a male name and three names solves the problem.

No, I haven't heard that one. I like Laken for a girl's name though. Don't care for it personally but then sometimes when a name fits a person it will grow on you. The one bad thing about concocting your own name is teachers and so forth will mispronounce it and that sometimes causes the child embarrassment when the other children make fun and laugh at them. If it were me, I'd stick to an easier to pronouce name. But then its not me, is it. ;)

Personally, I don't appreciate 'made up' names. People usually don't know how to pronounce them, much less spell them when it's said. Think about it. All his life, your son will have to say "My name's Lachren, that's L-A-C-H-R-E-N, and in classes, or anywhere else, people will always mispronounce it. I had a girl in my fourth grade class with a different name.. Every time she introduced herself, it was "I'm Cheltonia, and DON'T ASK ME HOW TO SPELL IT!!!!!"
What about Chlarence? granted, it's got a different spelling, but looking at it, you can pronounce it, and it's a name people are slightly familiar with (at least the Clarence version)
Hope this was helpful

Lachren is a family name, with most U.S. families living in Minnesota. There are also some Lachrens in England and Wales. I'm not sure what the meaning of the name is, although it is a German word.

I actually like this name quite a bit if pronounced as "Lock-ren". I agree with the above statement...it seems to have an Irishy feel to it. Yes, though, I really like it.

as in Lack-ren?? I think it is very original and it is sentimental. He may not appreciate it as a child, but as he grows older her will honor the sentiment. Does it work well with the last name?
Anything is better then "Apple" (gwyneth paltrow) or "CoCo" (courtney cox)....I mean, CoCo Arquette? What is she? A stripper?

It sounds like an evil-tasting medicine. How about "Charlee" with Ch from Chris, ee from Renee, and the arl squished from Lawrence?

I don't like it. I said it in my mind, and I had to use 3 syllables:
lah-chuh-ren. I'd try to make more combinations from those names. Sorry.

the name is unique and i have never heard of it before so if you want something noone has you got it. one of the other people said they dont care for it well as i see it people didnt care or know anything of my name for years and now it is a very popular name so i say if it sounds good when you say it go for it good luck
