I like
Laura quite a bit, actually. It's one of those classics where I feel it would be more difficult to guess a person's age because it has always been in regular use -- not unlike
Julia,
Maria,
Elizabeth, or
Katherine.
Laurel is nice as well although it's more difficult for me to pronounce. I'd only use it as a mn.

ETA that while I like
Lauren somewhat (look and sound) and have known my share of them, it's more trendy and is already dated. Therefore, it holds less appeal for me. It also bugs me that
Lauren began as a short form of
Laurence.
Your words reveal who you think you are, but your actions prove who you really are.
