Just asking.

The Lorelei are mythological German sirens whose singing lead boatmen
upon the Rhine river to their deaths. It's also the name of a song by
Styx, but unless you're a fan of 70's album rock you might never know
that.
I knew about the German legend, but not about the Styx song. In fact, the
German legend is one of the reasons I'm not sold on the name--kind of a creepy
association for a little girl!
