[Opinions] Re: Laurel, Lauren, Laura
in reply to a message by Gaia
Yay for all the people who like Laura best. I'm biased. I don't particularly like Lauren because as a millennial Laura, I got called Lauren ALL the time growing up. And still sometimes get called Lauren to this day.
I don't like the spelling Lauryn. If I had to use Lauren on a boy, I'd use Loren. I'd prefer Lawrence.
Laura Daphne is a hard pass since they are the Latin/Greek equivalents of each other. It's like naming her Artemis Diana or something of the sort.
As a fun fact, I had a great aunt named Lorena and she pronounced it as lor-EE-na.
