It's not chavvy but it does make me think of lorne sausage...especially being Scottish. Sorry....

I wouldn't say its chavvy but there are much nicer names around imo. How about Sophie & Lucy, Sophie & Laura or Sophie & Lily.

It's not "chavvy"no. But I agree with pp that it's very dated.

It shrieks 1990s to me. Which means it's not due a comeback any time soon.

I'm also not a fan of using a variation of a classic name to make things more interesting. Laura is beautiful, simple, elegant and timeless.Lauren is just unnecessary IMO.

I don't think it goes very well with Sophie either I'm afraid.

(I suppose I mean if I imagined a sibset of Sophie and Lauren, I'd imagine the Sophie to be about 3 and the Lauren to be in her late teens IYSWIM?)
