I think of a cow. I took my class on a field trip to small dairy farm and they had a cow named Lula Belle. Lulu Belle sounds too much like it.

It’s terrible. What I’d expect the character of a hillbilly woman to be named.

It works as a nickname but not a full name.

Cute as a nn! Even Lou as a fn would be better than Lulu imo. Something like Lou Isabella or Louisa Belle would be pretty :)

In a word, appalling. Totally lacking in dignity and charm.

Very cutesy. I love that for a little girl. On a grown woman, I'd prefer she have a longer, more professional-sounding name to fall back on. Real first name Louise "Lulu", real middle name Maribelle or Arabelle "Belle" because Louise Belle does not flow as well on its own. Isabelle would make it have too many L sounds, but I did consider it. Other "belles" would probably work. Mirabel, Rosabelle, etc... Endless possibilities. Louise Arabelle/Maribelle, etc. nicknamed "Lulu Belle" growing up. It sounds country, southern, and sweet like homemade pie. I'm remembering the Little Lulu cartoon. I'm thinking of a mischievous but good-hearted protagonist with this one.

Way too twee.
Would be cute as a nickname but not as a given name.
Something like Louisa Belle gives way more options.

I like Lulu as a nickname. Lulu Belle calls to mind a pampered teacup chihuahua.

Too cutesy. She'll get made fun of.

It's too gross even to name a milk cow; but it's as much a milk cow name as Bossy or Blossom.

Sounds too cutesy, more like a nn

I think it's adorable, and both names go well together! My only objection is that personally I find Lulu does sound a bit like a nickname, and not a full given name, so maybe it would be better off if it was short for something like Louisa, Lucia or Lucille.
