The name "Lance" originated in the Roman Empire, where it referred to the "lancea," a type of heavy thrusting spear used by the infantry legionaries. The Germanic tribes also used similar spears, known as "lanze" or "lans."
In medieval Europe, the name "Lance" came to be associated with the long, thin lances used by knights in jousting tournaments. These lances were designed to break upon impact, allowing the knights to engage in a mock battle without risking serious injury.
Over time, the name "Lance" became a popular given name for males, especially in English-speaking countries.
