Nickname

People keep asking us if we plan to give Lorelei a nickname. The first time someone asked me if we were going to call her Rory, I looked at them like they were nuts and simply said, "no". Then they explained that it's from Gilmore Girls, which we've never seen, but still doesn't clear up why they call that character Rory instead of Lorelei. Unless, (now that I really think about it) it's from a child who could not yet pronounce their /l/ and it came out as /r/, therefore sounding like Rory instead of Lori? Anyway, the show is fictional, so who cares.

So nicknames: We do not plan to shorten Lorelei into a nickname, although she has acquired a few pet names like "Miss" because she is such a little lady, and also "Toad" or "Froggie" for the adorable bullfrog position she tends to favor. Love that belly and looooooong legs.
