[Opinions] Re: Laurel, Lauren, Laura
in reply to a message by Gaia
I like Laurel pretty well. Seems the least overused.
Lauren is good. Lauryn is fine - I think of L. Hill. I don't love the Y. I don't like how Lauren sounds a bit like Lorne. I hate Lorne
Laura is classic to the point of boring, almost like Anne, and I don't like its prn in some languages (like la-oo-ra, or laur rhyme sour). But it's a good name.
I'm sick of Laurie because it's basically Lori, very dated and overused.
I like Lauretta, the way it looks, but the existence of Loretta makes it not as great.

Laurita is another nice one too
It's fun how in the US Lori seems to be the default nickname but in the UK it is Loz or Lolly.
