On the other hand, I'm often surprised at what heavy weather Americans make of "Zoe." I guess a lot of people just can't get a handle on anything unfamiliar. Still, "Lauren" for "Laurie" is pretty funny, albeit annoying. I know it's trivial, but still, it's your name, which is part of who you are. I wonder if Lori has the same problem?

So there's two of you in Greece. (When you're there, that is!) Okay, it turns out that “Lori” is really “Eleftheria,” but her family for some reason nicknamed her “Lori.”

There's a number of people who can't get beyond calling me Lauren for a reason I can explain. It's very trivial, but does bug me a wee wee bit.

I've met her in person, so I can attest to her existence. :-) I'll ask Zoe about the name. Hi Laurie, yes there’s really a Greek named Lori.

I love greens of all kinds. And also - could it really be a Greek named Lori? I've never heard the name used there. This looks incredibly good. I love greens of all kinds.
