    I think Laura is a classic. But neither Grace or Olivia flow as the mn, IMO.

    I do like Laura Grace. 

    I also like Laura Ann and Laura Beth... but it could be I'm only half awake right now. lol.  If I think of something better I'll add it to this (very short) list.

    Laura is my name so I'm slightly biased but I do think it is classic and timeless.

    Sorry, but Grace is a boring filler mn.

    I'm a little biased, too, because my name is Laura.  I've always loved my name (except for a short stint as a 7 year old when for some reason I told people to call me by my middle name).  To me it fits into the "common enough that people know how to pronounce/spell it but not so common that there's a million of them every where" category.  

    My name is Laura Elizabeth.  Are there any family names you like?  I agree with PP, Grace always seems like a filler mn to me.

    My name is Laura, too, so I'm also biased. I've always loved it! It's classic, pretty, easy to spell, and not too common. I rarely run into another Laura, at least IRL (it seems to be more common here). 

    I heard a little girl at Costco the other day being called Laura and it was refreshing!

    I've never liked Laura, but it was popular when I was growing up. It's a fine name, just NMS.

    I do like Laura Grace and Laura Beth.

    I think Laura is a great name. It's classic. I like Laura Katherine.

    I agree with this, I do love Grace but it doesn't fit well with Laura
