Quote from Rory in Pilot
Dean: I'm Dean. Rory: Hi. Oh. Rory. Me. That's me. Dean: Rory. Rory: Well, Lorelai, technically. Dean: Lorelai. I like that. Rory: It's my mother's name, too. She named me after herself. She was lying in the hospital thinking about how men name boys after themselves all the time, you know, so why couldn't women? She says her feminism just kind of took over. Personally, I think a lot of Demerol also went into that decision. I never talk this much.
