When coming up with her stage name, Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O'Connor said she added the "e" to "Lorde" because she felt Lord was too masculine. Where is the singer originally from?

Lorde was born in the Auckland suburb of Takapuna, New Zealand, and was performing very young at local venues. In 2013, she became the youngest person to ever be nominated for Record of the Year.
