Help[Opinions] Re: Lorelai vs Lorelei
in reply to a message by Heidi
Hmm.
Personally, I wouldn't change something just because I thought most people were ignorant. If you do, it makes YOU look ignorant to anyone who does know the mythological meaning of Lorelei. Plus it sounds so arrogant to say "yeah, well, we changed the spelling because most people wouldn't get it and have no idea where Lorelei comes from anyway."
Just something to think about.
Personally, I think Lorelei had a nice enough sound, but I wouldn't want to be named (or name my daughters) after Sirens.
