Thoughts on Lola?

[whistlers]

I also like Clara, husband loves Eve but I'm not sure because it's quite popular at the moment!

Love the name Lola! ❤️

She was a showgirl

So many Eves around. She’ll be one of 5 in her class!

Clara is nice but I like Lola the best!

L-O-L-A Lola

@HungryHippo11

L-O-L-A Lola

I fucking LOVE this song. But yes, it's about a drag Queen.... sigh

"Well, I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman but talked like a man
Oh my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola"

It's actually a nice name though!

Funny you should say that. My daughter is Eve and is the only one in her year group of 90. Lots of Sophia, Phoebe and Ellie/Ella though.

And an absolutely great song!

Clara is my favourite out of your 3 choices.
Lola was showgirl or Charlie and Lola.

Showgirl or drag queen.
I like Clara.

My first thought was “stripper name” if you want brutal honesty.

Lola - song about a transvestite by The Kinks.
Clara - a friend had a hamster called Clara.

I like all three. If you think Lola might be too much, maybe Leila/Lila.

I think Lola is a bit brassy.

I like Lola. Everyone's called eve

If you look at the baby name charts Lola has been consistently more popular than Eve. I prefer Eve and Clara to Lola. I don’t like the Claire-a pronunciation though so would probably go with Eve!

What do you mean, brassy?

I LOVE the name Lola ❤️

Forget all the Kinks/Manilow comments! Most people as she's growing up won't ever hear those songs (plus, they're great tunes!)

Also love Eve and didn't realise it's fashionable right now (don't know anyone with babies). Clara would be my least favourite of the three names.

Link?

I’m afraid it makes me think of either a stripper or the song too.

Love Clara though

Love lola. My friend has a DD with that name, usually shortened to Lo.

Lola = Strippers or pugs.

I know all of the negatives of Lola but I still love it. I don’t much like it’s meaning though (sorrows).

Apparently Lola is a nn for Aloisia which is is lovely.

Just the normal ons stats www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/livebirths/bulletins/babynamesenglandandwales/2019

There are quite a lot of Lola’s around, there really aren’t many Eves. I don’t know a single child named Eve. There are similar sounding Evie, Eva etc though

Yes I didn't realise it comes from Dolores and means Lady of the Sorrows. It's such a happy sounding name!
