"It is made" in latin is "fit", the 3rd person passive of facio, and the name of for who it is made should be in the dative case. For example, "It is made for Lucius", would be Lucio Fit. Abbreviations might also be used, but I do not know what they would be. You might latinize Lawrence by making it 3rd declension. The dative then becomes Lawrenci, which makes "It is made for Lawrence" as Lawrenci fit.

Another possibility is something active rather than passive. "I made this bowl for Lawrence" would be: Hanc pateram Lawrenci feci, or simply: "I made this [thing] for Lawrence": Hoc Lawrenci feci.
