Clara goes better with Elodie and is less of a tongue twister.

LorelEi unless you want to spell it oddly and make it more difficult! Both are nice. Lorelei nicest.

Ok I thought the pronounciation of lorelai and lorelei was different?
I prefer lie as in tell a lie
Rather than ie as in lee

Maybe I'm completely wrong ha! Oops
