I think its kind of sweet and pretty :)I had no idea Leonard Cohen used this for his daughter.

Leonard Cohen used it for his daughter, but it comes from the Spanish poet Federico Lorca who was shot during the Civil War and, while I do like his poems, I find the name cumbersome and not very attractive soundwise.

Sadly, I only hear Lorca the Orca.

Or . . . in French, "l'orca." :-)

(I shouldn't give kre8tyv types the idea, but I couldn't resist.)

I think it's rather harsh and unattractive.
