I couldnt find any discussion on here about the name Lorne. It's a Scottish boys name. I think it's lovely, what do you think?

Sorry - also makes me think of the variety of sausage

I assumed it was a girls' name, like a variant of Lorna.

Isn't it the name of that woman who presents Cash in the Attic who wears far too much slap? Lovely name btw.

My book says it may be Canadian in origin.

I liked it when reading a name book when I was pregnant, but DH wrinkled his nose at it and I completely forgot about it!

I still like it now anyway.

How is it pronounced? Have to say that I thought it was a girl's name when I read the thread title.
