Early days here and also don't know the sex but have narrowed down the names already!

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

Clara

ChocolateCrunch · 13/03/2018 15:23

Clara

BumDisease · 13/03/2018 14:37

Lorelei if you spell it correctly.

NoCureForLove · 13/03/2018 14:36

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

IMBU · 13/03/2018 14:33

I like both - prefer Lorelai

FartnissEverbeans · 13/03/2018 14:32

Lorelai is more interesting. I love it

MammieBear · 13/03/2018 12:57

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