What longer names can you suggest that will get me to the nickname [name]Lulu[/name]? [name]Tallulah[/name] is one… other suggestions?
[name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Lucilla[/name]
[name]Lucille[/name]
[name]Luella[/name]
[name]Louisa[/name]
[name]Lou[/name]
What a cute nn! It is interesting to start with a nn and then find a full name!
[name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Luciana[/name]
[name]Lucinda[/name]
[name]Luna[/name]
[name]Luisa[/name]
[name]Luanna[/name]
[name]Lula[/name]
[name]Allura[/name]
Some of these might be a bit of a stretch:
[name]Louisa[/name]
[name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Lucia[/name]
[name]Luella[/name]
[name]Lucienne[/name]
[name]Luciana[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Laurel[/name]
[name]Louise[/name]
[name]Lucasta[/name]
[name]Heloise[/name], [name]Lilou[/name], [name]Malu[/name], [name]Tulip[/name], [name]Tullia[/name]? (Stretches…?)
There’s also a thread on ways of “arriving at [name]Lucy[/name]” - it’s got tons of [name]Lu[/name]- names. 
Here:
I know a [name]Lucia[/name] that went by [name]Lulu[/name] when we were kids. Other less expected options (sorry for any repeats!):
[name]Lucinda[/name]
[name]Luella[/name]
[name]Luciana[/name]
[name]Luanne[/name]
[name]Lucille[/name]
[name]Lucretia[/name]
Lulette
[name]Lilou[/name]
hope that helps!
Thanks! I saw an earlier post (sorry, don’t remember who offhand) about a NB poster who had chosen [name]Lilou[/name] as a name, but became frustrated with people mispronouncing it. She then decided to chose [name]Lulu[/name] instead. [name]How[/name] exactly is [name]Lilou[/name] pronounced? I’d be one of those people butchering it, because I have no idea! It looks lovely, written, I just have no clue.
[name]Lilou[/name] is pronounced lee-loo. I think it’s so cute. I love that it means ‘lily’.
And [name]Tallulah[/name]!
[name]Eulalie[/name]
[name]Allura[/name]
[name]Lucretia[/name]
Ludmilla
[name]Luna[/name]
[name]Lupe[/name]
[name]Lux[/name]
Ludema
Also, [name]Eulalia[/name] and [name]Lunette[/name]?
Looks like you’ve gotten pretty much every way to get to [name]Lulu[/name]! Nobody mentioned [name]Lourdes[/name], I knew one who went by [name]Lulu[/name].
I think most L names lend themselves to [name]Lulu[/name]. My name is [name]Lyndsay[/name] and my occasional nickname is [name]Lou[/name], which could easily be [name]Lulu[/name]. You could always go with L.U. initials! Though there aren’t many nice names starting with U…
I think [name]Louise[/name] nn [name]Lulu[/name] would be stunningly unexpected these days! I would be over the moon to meet one!
[name]Louise[/name]/[name]Louisa[/name]
[name]Lauren[/name]
[name]Lucy[/name] and names related to it
[name]Laurel[/name]
[name]Lourdes[/name]
Someone here once mentioned a [name]Louisiana[/name] “[name]Lulu[/name]”.
[name]Louise[/name], [name]Louisa[/name], [name]Lucy[/name], [name]Lucille[/name] - all of the ones mentioned before.
My name is [name]Laura[/name] and I’m known as [name]Lulu[/name], so really you could use any name beginning with L =)
[name]Alula[/name]
[name]Blue[/name]
[name]Eluned[/name]
These are the only ones I don’t think you’ve hit.
[name]Guadalupe[/name]?
I’ve come to the conclusion I don’t particularly love any of the “[name]Lu[/name]” names (I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Lulu[/name] though), so I think any “L” name works (my sister is named [name]Laura[/name], and people call her [name]Lulu[/name], and I knew another little girl named [name]Lauren[/name] who was called [name]Lulu[/name]). Hubby and I have are pretty keen on [name]Elisabeth[/name] [name]Lilac[/name], and with the strong “L” sounds we are going to use the nickname [name]Lulu[/name] (we are not pregnant yet, but we always talk about name:)
[name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Lucia[/name]
[name]Luise[/name]
[name]Love[/name] [name]Elisabeth[/name] [name]Lilac[/name]!! And the nickname [name]Lulu[/name] makes it even better! What a beautiful name! Have you picked a boys name yet?
