You tease! I thought from the title you were going back to Lorelei. ;)
Between the two mns here, I prefer Elizabeth.

LOL You know how indecisive I am! Watch, when she finally comes, we'll end up going back to Lorelei! How terrible am I?
I just wanted to hear what people thought about Eden Michelle. It is my mn (which you know I was going to use with Lorelei), but I just don't like how it sounds with Eden. I feel a little guilty about not using my mn when we would be using dh's mn with the boy's name, Christian. But I actually LIKE how Christian Scott sounds. I don't care for Eden Michelle that much. It just doesn't get me excited like Eden Elizabeth.
Here's another thought. If we end up saving Lorelei for another girl, would it be okay to use my mn Michelle or would it make our other daughter fill left out?

I don't think so, but I can't really speak from experience on that front. My immediate family hasn't really used any family names, so I don't know how one having your mn and the other having her own name would come across to the girls themselves. I do know I'm actually glad I -- as the firstborn -- wasn't given my mom's mn, but that's purely based on taste. It's Lee, and even she dislikes it (not to mention that Kelli Lee would have been a terrible combo). LOL
If it concerns you, you might look into using a grandparents' (or other special persons')name as a mn with Eden.
Of course, you realize all of this may not matter in the least, as you may end up with an Eden and no Lorelei anyway. Like our own three-girl family. As of yet, all our boy names have been sitting on the proverbial shelf, collecting dust. ;)

Eden Elizabeth and Lorelei Michelle would make a great set.
