So I vote Lorelei. </p> <p>Its our #1 girls name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/loreleilorelai#post-2362391 Thu, 19 Nov 2015 05:52:58 +0000 Mrs. Peanut 2362391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I forgot to mention that I typed the name on a Google search. Pardon my pregnancy brain! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/loreleilorelai#post-2362316 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 22:55:49 +0000 mrsrain 2362316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lorelei seems more common but I grew up in the South Pacific so in my head I always pronounce that "lore-uh-lay"! So I prefer to second but voted the first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/loreleilorelai#post-2362205 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 21:29:09 +0000 BelugaBean 2362205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is LO1's middle name and we went with Lorelei because it seemed to be the more traditional spelling. Lorelai usually refers back to Gilmore Girls. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/loreleilorelai#post-2362191 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 21:24:17 +0000 Foodnerd81 2362191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like @Mrs. Peanut: logic on this one! But I already thought E was correct/ more common. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/loreleilorelai#post-2362186 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 21:21:47 +0000 Mrs. Peanut 2362186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started typing in "Lorel-" and it recommended Lorelei. There were several Lorelei hits and one Lorelai hit, so I'm guessing it's the more common spelling. Also my phone underlines Lorelai in red like I've misspelled it but not Lorelei. Good luck! :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/loreleilorelai#post-2362166 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 21:05:23 +0000 lady baltimore 2362166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not asking which you prefer, I'm just trying to figure out which is perceived as the more "standard" spelling of this name, so: </p>
