Lois - Love, Like, dislike, hate, feel nothing...elaborate.

Also do you know any Lois's?

Thanks

I think it's lovely. I teach a Lois and she is a delight.

usualsuspect · 10/06/2010 21:39

I love it

busterk · 10/06/2010 21:39

I know 1. She is 6 months. I think it's lovely.

lidofabiro · 10/06/2010 22:00

I like it and think it's due a revival Also like similar-sounding names like Louisa and Larissa.

GladioliBuckets · 10/06/2010 22:19

Like it, think it ticks classy, sensible, easy to pronounce and cute all at once.

Cashew · 10/06/2010 22:23

Lovely.
I know a fab Lois (nearly 3 years old), often known as LuLu, bright spark, knows her own mind, great fun. xx

narmada · 10/06/2010 22:50

Well, it is obviously the most fabulous name in the world, 'cos it's what we called our 2-year-old DD .

LetThereBeRock · 10/06/2010 22:57

I like it.

boodleboot · 11/06/2010 09:01

I don't know any but i think it is a really pretty name without feeling frilly.

On my list (very long list...) too.

MagalyZz · 11/06/2010 09:09

I love it. Really cool. So cool it hurts. but I still like it.

telsa · 11/06/2010 09:33

It's good. I also like Loie - which you can spell with 2 dots (diaeresis) over the i - Loïe - as in Anaïs too, to make sure each vowel is pronounced.

Shaz10 · 11/06/2010 09:36

I don't know any Loises but I wish I did! It's a gorgeous name. It's cute as a child and will also work well when she's a grown up.

kailie · 11/06/2010 09:44

I really like it and was on my list - very pretty

Spannaboo · 11/06/2010 09:46

It's lovely and very cool. I think of Lois Winstone - who is a cool girl.

Will put that on our names list if we have another girl.

nannyj · 11/06/2010 09:50

I know a Lois and she's lovely!

NiceCuppaT · 11/06/2010 11:31

superman girlfreind!
sorry you asked for negativity!

swanandduck · 11/06/2010 13:43

It's quite nice. Again, one of those names you see in old fashioned children's books which is now coming back in - like Dorothy and Audrey.

SchnitzelVonKrumm · 11/06/2010 13:46

It's fab, but it belongs to my DD!

dannap · 11/06/2010 13:49

It sounds too much like Lewis.

I know of 3 in my area so I don't consider it unusual.

mostlymay · 11/06/2010 16:55

I think it's a gorgeous name, I only know one and she's lovely so only postivity from me

strandedatsea · 11/06/2010 17:04

Love it. Was nearly dd2's middle name.

cravingcroissants · 11/06/2010 17:05

Lovely name
