What Loren`s say about their name

The best thing about the name Loren:
Unique yet easy spelling
The worst thing about the name:
Doesn't lend itself to many cool nicknames. Lori maybe, but that's basically another name. And I'm always having to spell it out. telling people it's Loren with an 'o'. And they go L-o-u-r-e-n? Annoying but kind of funny. Also I can never find my name on a keychain or magnet in a giftshop. But maybe that's good, I'd collect more junk.
If my name wasn`t Loren....:
It would be Uri or Robin, neither of which are as cool as Loren.
Extra information:
It's LORE-enn (Loren), not LAWR-enn(Lauren). Different spelling, different pronunciation. There is a difference, but my best friend Lauren seems to think I'm imagining it, lol, go figure
The best thing about the name Loren:
It's a unique name and I've never needed a nickname.
The worst thing about the name:
If people only see my name, they tend to think I'm a girl. People have a hard time spelling it correctly.
If my name wasn`t Loren....:
