It's my name and I LOVE it!!! I wouldn't change it for anything. I hardly ever run into another Lori, but I run into tons of Terry's (any way you spell it), Tammy's, Ashley's, Abby's, Sophia's, Tina's, Amanda's, & many, many more! I really, really get sick of these over-used names! Come on mom's think of something not quite so over-used, thanks!
My name is Laura, and my family always called me Lori. I prefer Laura, and they still call me Lori. Old habits die hard!
