Further down than Charlie and Lola for me.

Lilo would be higher up.

I like the name Lola.

Did you mean to put a comma after "thin"?

squeaver · 03/06/2009 14:52

No Charlie and Lola. And I imagine that would be the same for anyone with dcs. I think it's a nice name

Tamarto · 03/06/2009 14:52

I like the name Lola, but i know one, and she's lovely so i may be biased.

The thought porn star never occured to me, the song did though

pinkmagic1 · 03/06/2009 14:54

Didn't even think of her. Thought Charlie and Lola and then the song. Nice name actually.

3lilgirlsxxx · 03/06/2009 14:54

Sorry my bad, does it make you think porn star.

No. It makes you a small slim black cat. Well it does in this house.

Hulababy · 03/06/2009 15:07

No, it makes me think of Charlie and Lola.Would never have thought of porn star - don't know who lola Ferrari is.

Laurie - Lilo would simply make me think of Lilo and Stitch.

pagwatch · 03/06/2009 15:13

No.

Her name was Lola.
She was a showgirl.
with faded feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there.

But on the other hand she would merengue, and do the cha cha.

So I am not sure really. I guess if they are young and they have each other who could ask for more?

sockmonster · 03/06/2009 15:24

I think it was Lolo ferrari?

Anyway- yeah it does make me think porn star. And stripper. And Lolita. Which is a real shame because I love the name!

PuppyMonkey · 03/06/2009 15:31

Makes me think of Lola, lo lo lo lo lo la. The Kinks.

And then Charlie and Lola.

And I've never heard of Lola Fer whateshername either.

And now you've mentioned Barry Manilow, that's stuck in there too.

southeastastra · 03/06/2009 15:32

makes me think of bugsy malone, but don't think there is a lola in that film is there? so have no idea why

pagwatch · 03/06/2009 15:33

yay
Someone is stuck on manilows lola
My work here is done...

PuppyMonkey · 03/06/2009 15:36

Curses to you pagwatch..

"But that was 30 years ago, when they used to have a show.
Now it's the disco
But not for Lola.
Etc etc."

Jux · 03/06/2009 15:39

Makes me think of The Kinks.

magbags · 03/06/2009 15:40

I know a little girl called Lola, think it's a lovely quirky name.

Does make me think of Charlie and Lola, not the stripper at all (never heard of her). Don't think the connection to the children's programme would put me off using it tbh. Not a big deal imo.

notsoteenagemum · 03/06/2009 15:43

It makes me think of Charlie and Lola,
then Sara Cox trying not to say Lerla,

then her name was lolololo lo-la, she was a showgirl, because the two song have joined into one,

Not really Lola Ferarri, I keep thinking of Lolo Pops now though, is she the same as Lola Ferarri? Did LF have mahoosive norks and is she still alive?

I dosen't matter though I love the name.

DaddyJ · 03/06/2009 16:02

Nah, not really. And I am a bloke.
And, yes, I remember Lola F from Eurotrash
but she was certainly not iconic enough to have ruined the name.

I like Lola, think you are onto a good thing.

Comewhinewithme · 03/06/2009 16:15

DD was born on Friday and is a Lola I have found most people like it but have had many people thinking they are great wits and singing the showgirl or cherry cola .

She is very gorgeous though biased and has a beautiful name .

giraffesCantRunA10k · 03/06/2009 16:17

I think charlie and lola or lola the show girl

surreylady · 03/06/2009 16:48

We have a tortoise called Lola! but for me it is the Mannilow thing - suspect this shows both my age and a too sheltered upbringing....

JoPie · 03/06/2009 17:12

Lola Ferrari died of an overdose a few years ago.
Make me think of showgirls and charlie, then the kinks tranny, in that order. Wouldn't have thought of LF until you mentioned it.

Like it, but prefer Layla (as in the Clapton song)

sockmonster · 03/06/2009 17:25

I thought she died because she was crushed by her enormous breast implants!? Or was it her creepy husband that poisoned her?

Tres strange

notsoteenagemum · 03/06/2009 17:25

I'm thinking it was only my circle of friends that called her Lolo Pops

wahwahwah · 03/06/2009 17:27

Looooola
lo-lo-lo-lo-loooooooola
lo-lo-lo-lo-loooooooolaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
