1114 Lorraine is an asteroid orbiting in the asteroid belt. It was discovered by Alexandre Schaumasse on November 17, 1928, at Nice, France. It was independently discovered a day later by L. Volta at Pino Torinese, Italy. Its provisional designation was 1928 WA. It was named after the region and former duchy in northeastern France, a remnant of the medieval kingdom Lotharingia.^[2]
