Region of eastern France (8)

I believe the answer is:

lorraine

(Other definitions for lorraine that I've seen before include "Region of NE France" , "French region, cross" , "Region of north-eastern France" , "French sister province of Alsace" , "Region linked to Alsace" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
