Meaning & Origin
Lonzo is a boy's baby name of Germanic origin, a short form of Alonzo, itself a Spanish form of Alfonso, from the Old High German Adalfuns, composed of adal (noble) and funs (ready, eager), meaning 'noble and ready' or 'eager nobleman.'
With nearly 4,000 recorded births, Lonzo has a warm, Southern American character — it carries the easy approachability of a nickname that works perfectly as a full name. NBA player Lonzo Ball gave the name contemporary sports visibility. It sits in the tradition of names like Enzo, Lorenzo, and Alonzo — Italian and Spanish-influenced names with a musical, rolling character.
