I recently had someone comment that the name Lorelei sounded pagan to them (I suppose because of the siren association). In reality, Lorelei simply means "murmuring brook," which really doesn't have anything to do with paganism. What are your thoughts? Do you associate Lorelei with paganism? This is definitely not what I'm going for when choosing this name....

It would never cross my mind! (Of course, I don't know a thing about paganism either!)
