If you're looking for a name that's a nickname for many others, Lolly could be the perfect choice. This charming moniker is a diminutive of Laura, Charlotte, Dolores, and other names with similar sounds. From Charlotte, Lolly earns the meanings of "free man" and "army," so don't be surprised if your tiny tot has quite the competitive streak. Dolores' Spanish definition of "sorrows" describes the very opposite of life with sweet Lolly! Arising from the Latin Laurus, Laura means "laurel," referring to the evergreen shrub that produces bay laurel leaves. Used in many dishes for flavor and seasoning, the bay laurel leaf was once a symbol of triumph. In Ancient Rome, bay laurel leaves were woven into wreaths to be placed on the head of the victors. Little Lolly will follow in this tradition, wearing their name with the utmost pride.
