I came across a book by Nora Roberts the other day and picked it up. The heroine's name is Laurellie, Laurel for short. I think it's supposed to be pronounced like Lorelei, since the nn is Laurel. Opinions?

This was my thought exactly. More like Laurel-ee, or Laura-lee. But either way I hate it.

I googled. It's an alternative spelling for Lorelei.

Yikes. Still don't like, haha. Too phonetic...and way too many letters!
