Re: Lolita
One of my great-great-grandmothers was named Lola. I think it’s fine and spunky. Maybe a little too sexed up for anyone too prudish to tolerate such suggestive material. My great-great-grandmother Lola had fifteen kids.Sparrow

I don't think it has anything to do with being prudish. I don't have anything against showgirls or sex workers and no problem talking about sex but I don't want people to connect these associations with my infant daughter's name.At the time your grandma was born it likely didn't have these associations and was seen as old fashioned and charming, in a similar way too Lula (which I think is cute). Without all these associations I would find Lola cute as well.
