Help[Opinions] Re: Dorian and Lorraine
in reply to a message by rainmaker
Dorian's a name I really can't imagine using, simply since Dorian Gray made a huge impact on me when I read the book. The tale is the reason I love the name Basil, though; he was such a good person and I loved him for it.
Lorraine is a name that I really, really like. It makes me think first of Lorraine McFly in Back to the Future, oddly enough. But she was a fox in that movie, so I guess it's okay. ;) Really, though, I think it's a lovely name. It's retro cool, you can point out that it's a place name if someone complains that it's unhip, and it has some distinctively different choices for nicknames. I totally like Lori better than Rainey, though--keep the vintage feel right on coming.

"Back to the Future"...
Back to the Future is where I probably first heard the name Lorraine (of course, I was a mere tot at the time, so I could've cared less ). It was probably after I bought the DVD set of the three movies that I was reacquainted with the name, after not hearing it for such a long time. I actually know no one with the name.
