Imdanny Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,831 Last Post: 11/17/2009 Member Since: 1/22/2008	Hi Lorelei, did you know that Ella Fitzgerald had a song "Lorelei"? I just discovered that (I'm fan of hers but I still haven't listened to everything she recorded). I was wondering if you could tell us also if this is your real name or why you chose it as a screen name? Thanks! Danny

I will have to see if I can locate it on youtube! Lorelei isn't my real name, it came about when I first found PS years ago and registered, that I had to quickly think of a username. As I wanted something apt and I am a Marilyn fan, I thought of her diamond obsessed character Lorelei Lee in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. As I am also a blonde and love diamonds it felt right! Nowadays Lorelei feels as natural to me as my own name. I think it is actually a German name. Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be... - Stephanie M Thorn

I would say my face is similar if a bit thinner but my hair is blonde and shorter But yes I think if you put a blonde one length bob on her then we would be reasonably alike actually.

To follow up, why did you choose your avatar? Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks.

jstarfireb Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,142 Last Post: 11/22/2009 Member Since: 3/24/2007	I'm sure you know about the legend of the Lorelei as a siren, right? More info here...they say she was a beautiful young girl who jumped off of Lorelei Rock in Germany and became a siren who lures sailors to their deaths with her singing. A famous poem based on the legend was set to music some time in the 1800s and is considered a German folk song. You can listen to it here on Youtube. Lyrics and translation are here. ************************** "In the end, I wonder if the true movement of the world might not be a voice raised in song." -Muriel Barbary

I had heard of it but wasn't too sure how the legend went, very cool! I also like the part about Lorelei meaning murmuring rock! That musical poem was incredible, very beautiful - thanks so much for posting all this J, Lorelei does feel as natural as my own name now, so it is nice to know more about the origins of the name.
