Opinions on this name which I’ve fallen in love with recently, the vibes it gives and any middle name/nickname options. I think with Matilda it would make a perfect pairing and maybe with Clara if necessary but falls into a different category compared to Ingrid and Florence 
.
I’m a little confused on how to pronounce it? It it lor-nuh or lor-in-uh?
I do think it looks pretty! It reminds me of [name_f]Laura[/name_f] or [name_u]Loren[/name_u].

It’s similar to [name_u]Loren[/name_u] with an extra a on the end
I love [name_f]Lorena[/name_f]! I have a friend named [name_f]Lorena[/name_f], her name is [name_f]Lorena[/name_f] [name_f]Belle[/name_f]. I think [name_f]Lorena[/name_f] and [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] work wonders together, they sound like such a pair.

I love [name_f]Lorena[/name_f]! [name_f]My[/name_f] great-aunt is [name_f]Lorena[/name_f] [name_u]Kay[/name_u], and I have always thought she had the prettiest name. [name_f]Lorena[/name_f] is very homestead chic feeling to me? Like sun-bleached braids, grassy knolls, gardening, and kitchen witches.
Rena/Rina, [name_f]Lore[/name_f], [name_f]Lori[/name_f], [name_f]Nina[/name_f], and [name_f]Rini[/name_f] are all nickname options.
As far as sibling names, I think any of your listed ones work b

I like it but it gets pronounced Lor-ray-nah more often than not where I am, so I’d personally be tempted to go for [name_f]Lorenna[/name_f] - which is the [name_m]German[/name_m] variation (where [name_f]Lorena[/name_f] is Spanish). I prefer that pronunciation.
Middle possibilities (I do like [name_f]Iris[/name_f] and [name_f]Clara[/name_f] as middles too):
[name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]
[name_u]Florence[/name_u]
[name_f]Fleur[/name_f]
[name_f]Constance[/name_f]
[name_f]Clothilde[/name_f]

[name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Sophie[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps!

I think [name_f]Lorena[/name_f] is gorgeous. I live in Latin [name_u]America[/name_u] where it’s pronounced lor-AE-na. Nicknames beyond [name_f]Lori[/name_f] could be [name_f]Rena[/name_f], [name_u]Rainy[/name_u], [name_f]Reya[/name_f].

[name_f]My[/name_f] son had a teacher named [name_f]Lorena[/name_f] but she pronounced it LOR-eena. I really like the name with your pronunciation which is closer to LOR-enna, I believe? Lorena/Lorenna [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] is lovely!

I’m not a big fan of the name, especially with [name_f]Clara[/name_f].
I’d rather see…
[name_f]Clara[/name_f] and [name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Clara[/name_f] and [name_f]Laura[/name_f]
