Lois!
I've fallen in love with little Lois, ever since I realized it is really quite delicate and flowery, in its own stumpy way. As well as being a really lovely lilac colour.I played around a bit with combos; they're all over the board because I'm not entirely sure what kind of animal Lois is yet.Lois Ophelia
Lois Jamesina
Lois Cordelia
Lois Amelia, Lois Emilia
Lois Philippa
Lois Annabelle
Lois Octavia
Lois Francine
Lois Henrietta
Lois Phoebe
Lois Rowena
Lois Thomasina
Lois Eleanora
Lois Aline
Lois Katharina
Lois Rosemary
Lois Verity...other suggestions?So far I really like her paired with delicate, frou-frou names: totally at odds with her sensible M.O. but for some reason I find those the most interesting.Also, do you think either the Superman or Family Guy references are too strong around this name?

ActuallyI think Malcolm in the Middle before Family Guy or Superman. But Family Guy is way up there. The Superman association wouldn't be an annoying one to have, so it doesn't count as much.I don't specifically dislike Lois, but I think it sounds kind of harsh and cold. I do like your Lois Philippa combo. That's a butt kicking combo for sure. Lois Katharina is very pretty.

Almost all I can think about is Superman. I wouldn't have even thought of Family Guy if you hadn't mentioned it (first name to come to mind with that show is Stewie). Now, this isn't to say that the Superman association is bad, just that it's strong.Personally, Lois is quite pretty, and a name I'd actually forgotten about. Of your combos, the ones I like are:
Lois Amelia
Lois Annabelle
Lois AlineI also suggest:
Lois Annabel (different spelling)
Lois Aubergine
Lois Jane
Lois Jasmine
Lois Jessamine
Lois Marigold
Lois Penelope
Lois Viola
Lois Violet

Oh, wait....figured I should answer one of your questions, at least. Yes, my first thought was "The Family Guy" and I think the association is strong. Well, my very first thought was actually "Lois has an annoying screechy voice", and my second thought was the realization that I thought that because of the show.

I actually agree that it goes well with frillier mns. I didn't think of Superman or Family Guy, but I did think of Lois Lane from Kiss Me Kate.

Unfortunately, the Family Guy references destroy this name.However, Lois is the name of my musical director's wife and she yells at him all the time. XD "William!" "Yes, Lois."Ah, good times. I like Lois Annabelle.

I think of Lois from Malcolm in the Middle, actually. Superman and Family Guy don't even register with me. I love Lois too, though for me it's red and white, like an old country barn.Lois Jamesina
Lois Amelia, Lois Emilia -I can definitely see this.
Lois Philippa
Lois Annabelle -Ok, now this is so incredibly perfect it hurts a litte.
Lois Octavia -Ditto.
Lois Francine -Aw. Super frumpy cute.
Lois Henrietta -Would prefer Henriette.
Lois Phoebe -Would prefer Phoebe Lois, but I do have to admit that Phoebe brings the white in Lois to a shining glow.
Lois Thomasina -Would prefer Thomasine, but Lois Thomasina is damn cute.
Lois Eleanora -Too L-heavy for me.
Lois Aline -Again too L-heavy, although I definitely see the appeal of the short French name with Lois.
Lois Verity -Pretty.I don't know how good these'll be, since I almost never work with Lois. My one and only Lois combo is Zipporah Lois. Hope you find something that you like!

Thank you! I REALLY like these:Lois Georgiana- so rich and luxurious, it's all silk and good taste.
Junia Lois - I really like this! I like the J and L together, it heightens the purple feeling I get from Lois. June Lois is really cute too.
Lois Perrine - CUTE, I like how snub-nosed and teeny it is
