Because of the extra flourishes in the first and last letters, and the inconsistency in form of the middle letters, it could be either Laurel, Yanny, or gibberish. It's in the eye of the beholder.

Laurel. Very interesting. It's like that dress that people see as blue/black or white/black. I have seen it as different colors at different times. This all kind of freaks me out a little bit.
