What do you think about the name Lola? I quite like it but something is holding me back...

Yep, a nickname for Dolores.

Short for Dolores, which is short for Maria de Dolores ((Virgin) Mary of Sorrows).

Famous old cabaret song (Marlene Dietrich) 'They call me naughty Lola...'

Showgirl
Transvestite

I know a few aged about 2 to 9, but my defaults are the Lolas made infamous in song.

I know an adult and a child Lola. They are both lovely. The adult is a scientist, not a showgirl.

Her name was Loka, she was a showgirl...!
Sorry

Apart from the Kinks song and the Barry Manilow song?
