Ok, i swear i didnt get this name from the earlier post! lol 

Im torn over the name/middle name thing.  I want the name Lorelei. but since it is a long name.....we would call her Rory. Yes....i am exaclty copying GG. I loved the show.  But when i tell ppl what we're calling her for short...EVERYONE says..."Why dont u just name her Rory then?"   So  herein lies the prob.   Since noone except GG fans know that Rory is short for Lorelei, should i just name her Lorelei Rory B. ?   My original middle name picked out is Rose.

Or would that be weird/dumb? like naming a boy William Bill.....? Gah 

Your advice/suggestions are appreciated, in addition to the poll

Tough decision.  As someone who was named one thing and called another it really has complicated my life.  In fact, I won't do it to my kids.  I have my legal name that has to go on all the paperwork and stuff and then I have the name I go by - it's irritating.  Just something to think about.  Good luck!

I thought GG spelled the name Lorelai.. I like Lorelai Rose.. There's a movie (Gentlement Prefer Blondes) that has Lorelei spelled that way tho.
