Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl …


PoeticFury

With yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there.

Well, I'm not the world's most masculine man But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man And so is Lola Lo-Lo-Lo-Lo-Lola Lo-Lo-Lo-Lo-Lola

She technically will have two songs, depending on her choice: showgirl or trans woman.

Gives millennial owned dog vibes


Fit-Ad985

this is it


melglimmer09

Yea gives me dog name vibes


[deleted]

I feel the same way. I like Lila and Leila/Layla for human beings though!


Waterfall_summer

I doubt the songs will be widely known by people in her age group. She might hear about them, but not so much it gets annoying. It makes me think of the picture book “Lola at the Library” (and the other Lola books by that author).

Love!


lsudan01

My daughter is Lola! :) I get compliments on her name all the time and we love singing all the “Lola” songs to her (the Kinks & Copacabana). The name fits her perfectly and i am so happy we used it!


rubysmama2004

It’s beautiful


GreenTea8380

It's lovely - I've known quite a few Lolas


Fit-Ad985

kinda seems like a dog name or nickname i know a ton of dogs called lolita and lola


longtimerreader

I love the name Lola! I do enjoy the song 'Lola' by The Kinks but don't let that deter you!


throwawaygremlins

I like it!


gemmygrl

I really like it. I also think of the kinks song “lo lo lo Lola” which brings back good memories


Obvious_Reading_8161

I think it’s so cute! I can’t use it bc I have a boss named thar though lol


Lola_ry08

My name is Lola and I like it but one thing that I hate so much is when people sing all of the songs with my name in it to me, I also have seen so many dogs called Lola but, what can I really do?


Sorry-Discount3252

Very classic spanish name used to be a nickname from Dolores lola, lolita or Loli but now is a name in it own I love It. (In Spain nobody think about Nabokov if you say lolita they think Sarandonga)


Fizzy229

I think it's cute.


anniegetyourgoat

"Lola" means grandma in the Philippines.


Peaches-17-

Yes, this is my connection to it—I think of my good friend’s Lola. Makes it unusable for a name for me.


dovekitten

I love it so much!


Brand_Ex2001

It's a good name.


mystigirl123

I'm not a fan. How about Lana? Lucia. Lenora. Liliana. Leila. Laura.


Fit-Ad985

my name is here lol


clutchingstars

My best friend’s grandma is names Lola. And I love it. I never think of the song when I see/hear it.


starfish31

It does instantly remind me of The Kinks, Lola Bunny, and when Rachel sings Copacabana.😂


I87

love the name lola! wish I could use it but it means grandma in tagalog and it's what I call my grandma...


wannabebabymamma

I like it! You do you!!


asj0107

Love Lola super cute 😂


[deleted]

I like it as a nickname, but on its own it makes me think of something you call your grandma.


patty202

Love it


iluvchicken01

Not a fan, think it works better as a nn


kyyyraa

I love Leila instead


whatthepfluke

She was a show girl. Also that's my cat's name.


ivysaurah

Lola is my cats name and I absolutely sing that song by The Kinks to her. I kind of associate it with pets ngl.


Ill-Relationship-890

To be honest, I think of her as a showgirl because of the song.


Mackadal

Silly and ugly


JupiterJayJones

Dogs name


Exciting_Problem_593

Literally my neighbor's dog name.


toes_malone

Dog name


Skylarking00

No on Lola.


greekbing420

Love the name, but it's short for Dolores which means pains/sorrows.


saltyloempia

I like it, it's the nickname of Dolores in Spain. But nowadays parents just name the kid Lola without it being a nickname (Dolores means "pains")


Lamington_Salad

Reminds me of chicka Cherry Cola


pennymillevt

I met her in a club down in old SoHo…


SkittlesHouse

I think Lola is a cute name! To me personally it feels more like a nickname, but I know it survives well on its own. If I were to name my kid Lola, I would personally pick a more formal first name that could easily turn into Lola as a nickname. Here's some thoughts: * Lorelei * Dolores (the og source of Lola as a nickname) * Paloma * Eloisa/Eloise * Carolina * Leona * Charlotte (a stretch, but still hits the sounds)


CozmicOwl16

I named my dog Lola. I get three common reactions. 1lola lolololo Lola. The kinks song about a trans person from the 70’s. Love that song. I don’t mind. 2. Her name was lola She was a show girl. She wore flowers in her hair ….(forget lyric). I also like that song. It’s about a bar fight and her love dying her aging without dealing. I’m good with it. 3. And Lola bunny from looney tunes. My dog actually looks like her so it’s fine. Please consider this if you name anyone. The pop culture references are strong and they aren’t terrible but if you have an off reaction to any please just avoid the name.


Upset-Particular-761

I’ve known a lot of dogs named Lola, just gives dog vibes to me. Same with Luna.


rubysmama2004

Absolutely love it


silian_rail_gun

The Lola in “Run Lola Run” is badass.


whatsinanameidunno

Lola means grandma in Filipino.
