Lola Jane

Friend who is non mums-netter has asked me to post this and send replies to her.

Her thoughts are that Lola has (likely) been and had its day - yet it’s still the name she’s liked most for the past five or six years... in your opinion, is it too dated already or still acceptable to use?

Lola Jane would be the full name. Half sister is Polly and is five (if that makes a difference?)

She loves both the Kinks song and the Manilow song so those don’t have negative connotations for her ...

Comments gratefully received Grin

I really like it.

Is every name that's not Elizabeth, Olivia and Sophia etc a stripper name on MN Hmm

Jane is so boring. And I say that as 50% of 1970s born women who have it as a middle name.

For 70's women, true, but these days it would be a refreshing change from Mae. I don't understand the point of filler names at all. If they want a longer name, pick a longer name.

Awful, stripper name.

Really like Lola. Goes well with Jane and it complements Polly.
I would be happy to use it. It's not as popular as it was but that's a good thing.
It was never overly popular where I live anyway and as a result I don't think it will date badly.
