I like Lorelai better because to me it looks like Lore-lie while Lorelei looks like Lore-lay (like leis in Hawaii). Either way, i like the name, but now that i have said it in my head so much it sounds really silly. I had a friend in elementary school named Lorelai. She was from... Romania i believe. She told me her name was the Hawaiian spelling, but it is a Polish name. Not sure how credible that is coming from a second grader. And the gilmore girls connotation endears it to me all the more. Guilty.
