Lola

Lola
Lola f
Spanish and English: originally a nursery form of DOLORES (SEE Dolores), now established as a popular name in its own right. It owes some of its popularity to the fame of Lola Montez (1818–61), stage name adopted by Marie Gilbert, an Irish dancer and courtesan who had affairs with Liszt, Dumas, and others. From 1846–8 she so captivated the elderly Ludwig I of Bavaria that she became the virtual ruler of the country, precipitating riots, a constitutional crisis, and the abdication of the king. She arrived in New York in 1851, and spent the last years of her life working to help prostitutes.
