Meaning & Origin
A surname.
Harlowe is a girl's and boy's baby name of Old English origin, a variant of Harlow, from an English place name meaning 'rock hill' or 'army hill,' from Old English here (army) and hlaw (hill). Jean Harlow, the platinum blonde Hollywood icon of the 1930s, made the name synonymous with glamour.
The -e ending gives Harlowe a French-influenced elegance that distinguishes it from the more common Harlow. About 880 U.S. births are recorded for this spelling. It's a name that feels both golden-age Hollywood and modern at once.
