Do you know anyone called Laurianna or Lauriana?

Would you use this name? Is it too 'out there'? I think it's beautiful with the nickname of Laurie.

I'm just throwing it to the MN jury. I'm curious about opinions

No it sounds made up.

Oooft...fair play! I asked!

Yes I like Laurie. And I agree about -ana vs -anna. I just wondered if it was a name anyone had ever come across in RL.

A girl in our school was called Lorana. Suited her.

Certainly not. I don't know a 'Laurianna' and would not call a daughter by that name. Nicknames are entirely superfluous if you give a child a proper name.

'Anna' would be fine. 'Laurel', 'Lauren' or even 'Lorraine'. But not Laurianna.

Agree Lauriana with 1 'n'. I would probably think it was pronounced "Lauriarna" (non-rhotive r).

Not Laurianna, sorry. I agree with eastwest that it doesn't work.

No, I think it's awful, sorry. It doesn't sound like a 'real' name.

Why not just Laurie?

I would use it with one n not two. Two makes it seem a bit like two names stuck together somehow.
