Opinions on Laurie for a boy. I love the name but not a massive fan of Lawrence so it would have to be his name and not a nickname!

Ha! I have a Lawrence and he had a lorry for his peg at nursery. He hates Laurie and has to be called by Lawrence or his completely unrelated nickname.
HA! Same! Grin

Love it! Go for it - Laurie is lovely. I love Laurence too. You might find it really grows on you - it has me!

I love it- one of my best friends is named this after the character from Little Women!

No, it’s far too twee. Call him Lawrence or Laurence. Give him the option.
