[name_f]Lorraine[/name_f] looks more familiar to me, but since it will be her middle name and therefore not subject to constant misspelling, I would keep the spelling of your grandmother.

I voted for [name_f]Lorraine[/name_f] but out of familiarity. If your grandmother spelled it with one “r” then I’d see no reason not to go that route if you like it!

I agree with this. I didn’t read your post before I voted. Since it’s an honor name and a mn at that, I would spell it the same as the person you’re honoring.
