I'm not pregnant, i just like names.

What do you think of the boy name Laurence and a nickname from that being Laurie? Do you think it sounds too feminine?

I personally don't think it sounds feminine, but I was brought up knowing the story of Little Women. My mother's name is Laurie, and I would like to name a child after her some day, but I would like for it to be a boy. I really like the name Laurence and I think Laurie could be neat. However, I'm not opposed to just using Laurence and losing the whole Laurie idea altogether.

Any thoughts?

My grandfather was born in the 1920s and his mother read Little Women while she was pregnant. She named him Laurence, and he was known as Laurie his whole life! I think its a wonderful name, adorable nn.
