HelpTwin sister for Lorien?
Messing around with my 'fantasy future family' again . . .
Please give me suggestions for a name for an (identical) twin sister for Lorien? You can use my personal name list or any other names that come to mind.
The only specification is no R, J, T or L names.
The twins' siblings would be Rowan, Jean "Jinnie" and Theodore "Theo".
Thanks in advance! All suggestions welcome :-)
PS: Lorien is pronounced with a short first 'o'. Think about the English word lorry when said in an English accent: that's the first syllable. It does *not* sound like the name Lori.

I thinnk Lorien looks pretty - I just don't understand your pronunciation explanation.
Explain it from an Australian perspective? What word does it sound like here?

Oh. I just check the pronunciation given for Lori and thats where the confusion obviously lies for me. I say Lori and Lorry the same. Both with short O's. I had no idea Lori was meant to be said LAWR-ee.
So, I must be pronouncing it correctly then.
Suggestions:
Lorien & Mariel
Lorien & Daphne
Lorien & Olivia
Lorien & Daisy
Lorien & Marguerite
Lorien & Opal
Lorien & Mariella
Lorien & Mireille
Lorien & Greta
Lorien & Gretchen
Lorien & Maritza
Lorien & Megan
P.S I love Rowan & Theodore "Theo".

The same as in English. Just say 'lorry' (rhymes exactly with 'sorry'), then stick 'en' on the end.
The 'o' in Lorien is the 'o' as in 'lot', rather than 'ah' as in 'car' or 'aw' as in 'law', which are the sounds that the US accent would put in there.

Ok, I've got it now. First part rhymes with "sorry"--that makes total sense. I guess Laurien would make more phonetic sense to me but that would be the kre8tyv spelling, technically. :-/
