Lala was my character's name in a game I used to play on Nintendo: Disney Magical World. I was around 5 or 6. Anyways, Lala is cute as a nickname. But as a actual legal name is a bit strange.
Well, my nickname is Lala. And in my country, it means "Playful". Sure I sometimes got mocked for it, but I love my nickname (plus it's easier to spell than my real name). It's a pretty common nickname in Indonesia though. I love to put it in an initial such as 36 (La=6 in music and times it with 2).
I'm Taiwanese, and my English teacher is British, when I told him my English name was Lala, he was surprised and smiled strangely. I was confused about it for 3 months, now I see these comments, I guess he also thinks this name is ridiculous.
Not a good name to use by itself. Lala is bad enough but used as just a seldom nickname makes it a bit better.

My late aunt's nickname was Lala. Her real name was Evelyn. She was a woman of style, sophistication, intelligence and grace. As I grew older, I had a very special black cat that was her namesake and has recently passed away. I love the name Lala and the classy woman from the Hollywood Era it reminds me of!
The name Lala is extremely darn cute. It's a lovely and happy feminine name, just like the name Lulu. :) Overall, I believe Lala is a beautiful sounding name with a beautiful meaning. ^_^

Lala is a nickname and it's cute. It reminds me of the nickname Lulu but Lulu sounds a bit too juvenile. Lala sounds is more sultry and mysterious. I've only known one person named Lala, but her name was Alessandra, just called Lala.

Lalah Hathaway is an R&B and jazz singer, the daughter of the late soul singer Donny Hathaway.
My name is Lala. It was hard in Elementary School where kids are immature and judge you by your name. But as we grow up we look past names and faces (at least most of us). I'm 25 now, and good looking may I add. I like my name, it's unique and people always ask about it. Why not!?
Like Lala007 said in school kids are a bit immature and judge you by your name, but those 7 years of your life will be difficult and why let a child suffer for seven years when you can just give them a better name like Adalaide, Gracelyn, Annalise, Bridget or Larisa? And no offense to all the Lalas out there but Lala sounds a bit stupid with any middle name I mean come on, Lala Anne? Lala Marie? Lala Katarina? Lala Rose? See? It just doesn't work out. It might get better when the girl is older but for those years of her life, just don't torture her, give her a more normal name like Diana or something.
I'm one of those people who likes to give ridiculous nicknames to their friends. I went to school with a girl named Amber but my friend Tarah and I decided to nickname her Lala (for no real reason other than she liked flowers and was very nature-y). I love the sound of this name when it's pronounced with the stress on the first syllable. It sounds almost wild but not fierce. Very free and unrestrained.
I was bored and just typed "Lala" into the search box. (I do that a lot in the address box, just type in lalalala.) I really didn't expect anything to come up!
If you happen to be Bulgarian and living in Bulgarian, that's fine. But if you live in an English-speaking country like I do - this name is a definite NO.
It really just reminds of me Tellytubbies. I can't picture anything else besides a funny looking yellow person with a grey TV screen on its stomach. Fine as a nickname for someone, like a Leila or Alannah, but not as an actual name.
My best friend's name is Lauren and I call her "Lala." A lot of people know her that way by now. I think it's a lovely name, but I'm probably a little biased.
The word "lale", which means "tulip", has a Persian origin. Till now "Lale" is one of the most popular feminine names in Iran. The first information about the "lale" is connected to Persia. The flower is praised by many Persian poets. For Persians it became a symbol of a declaration of love and perfect love. The most beautiful street in Tehran, which is the centre of theatrical art, is called "Lalezar", meaning "tulip garden".
"Lala" and "Lalka" have a nameday on Palm Sunday (the Sunday before Easter) - the day of flowers and willows (the names of the other trees also have a nameday).
The Bulgarian word for "tulip" is "lale" (the stress is on the "e"). In Bulgaria besides "Lala" (the stress is on the first "a"), another feminine name with the same root "lal" is the name "Lalka" (the stress is on the first "a").
