About Lorien
The name Lórien appears several times in Tolkien’s novels. It’s both a place name and a character name, and although the name may sound feminine due to the similarity with Lauren and Marien, Tolkein's character Lórien (Master of Visions and Dreams, also called Irmo) is male and the softness of the name will appeal to parents weary of macho names.
