I'm named after my paternal grandfather, Laurence, who's nickname is Laurie (him mother liked Little Women)!

My mother originally wanted to use the sister's names. But Jo was taken by her sister and my father had a cousin who named her daughters Amy & Beth. I'm don't recall why she didn't use Meg. Therefore she decided on Laurie.
Everyone mispronounces her name as LOR-ee though. Our 5 year-old nephew just can't figure it out, he insists on calling her LOR-ee.
BTW, there are two other Laurie's that post on this board. One posts as Laurie, the other posts as Laurie2
