Historical records indicate the presence of the lävmiin surname from at least the 19th century. Like many Finnish surnames, its adoption might have been influenced by factors such as the Great Finnish Name Revival in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, although lävmiin does not appear to be one of the more commonly adopted new surnames from that era.
