So I was getting story ideas today, and a new character just 'walked into' my mind. Her name was Loret.

What do y'all think?

Can't pronounce it. Lo-RET? LOR-it? Something else?

How do you pronounce it? I like the look of it. As for the sound, I'm not sure... I've come up with three different ways to pronounce this name... so I think I need a little direction ;-)

LOR-et. Almost like the way you'd pronounce Lauren, but with a 't' at the end instead. Oh, and slightly more emphasis on the 'e' (It doesn't want to sound like LOR-ut).

Was that any help?

Ah, thanks.
For a second I was wondering whether the t was silent. (All of a sudden it looked almost like a French boys' name to me... uhm... well... it's getting late)

Anyway, I like the sound ;-)

Hm. I liked it at first, but then it reminded me of Loretta and made me think of grumpy old ladies... Other than that I like it. This reminded me of two more names: Lauret, which just popped into my head, and a character in a story one of my friends wrote, named Lennett.
BTW is it LOR-et or lor-ET?

LOR-et...

Glad you like it!
