Lois?

[Hazelnuttree]

Thoughts on Lois? I think it's sweet for a little girl and strong sounding for a woman. Underused but not 'out there'. What do you think? Do you know any?

I know one, she’s maybe 10 by now. I like it a lot.

I love it. I know an adult one who is fabulous.

Love it. Inexplicably hardly used.

I know one in their mid-twenties. I really love it! Only downside for me would be potential family guy jokes. I think you're right about it coming across as sweet for a child but also a good, strong name for an adult 🙂

I know 3! One is a senior oncologist, one is a barrister and the other is a very talented artist! Based on that alone I'm convinced all Lois named women are very smart and lovely 😂

We had a patient with that name. She has learning and physical disabilities, but such a character, she brightened up the ward and made us cry with laughter many times. and we all loved her. So I like the name!

Lovely

Oh now that's one I've not heard in so so long .. love it

I know one old lady Lois and one little girl Lois and they are both lovely. As a previous poster said it is inexplicably underused.

It's easy to spell and pronounce too!

I have one.

She's 8. And the only one we know. It's an old fashioned biblical name and I love it because it's strong and yet feminine too.

She is often known as Lo & Lolly

Personally I love Lois.

To me it would be grouped with names such as: Dolores, Delphine, Candice, Francine, Lalage and Betty.

Jewish grandmothers that were partying at the same resort as Baby in "Dirty Dancing".

It's a lovely name , you can't go wrong. I'd use it next time but I'm done so no next time. Go for it !

Great name

I love it

Lane.
Love it

Love love love it. Still trying to tell myself that Carys and Lois sound ok together if this one is a girl!

Met one today and she was a cracking young lady! Also know a 5yo one and she's great too.

It's lovely

It's a lovely name, one of my favourites. Also Carys and Margot

Ugly, ungainly name.

Puts me in mind of Lois Waller from Sweet Valley High.

I have a Lois!! Had nothing but compliments (to my face anyway ) Still a wee baby but it really suits her, I love that it's not to frilly but still feminine. Works well for baby, teen and adult. She often gets called Lo or lilo by her big brother

It was my choice had DS been a girl. I’ve loved the name for ages. I’m welsh and know a couple
of others but not many.

It's a love from me.

How are you pronouncing it? As in "Loyce Lane" or more like "Lowiss"??

Go for it, its a lovely name refreshing and ageless at the same time. It will age better then some of today's names of the moment.
