Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Lola vznikla ako španielska domácka podoba mena Dolores. Španielske dolores znamená „bolesti“ a súvisí s mariánskym titulom Nuestra Señora de los Dolores, v slovenčine Bolestná Panna Mária. Základom je latinské dolor „bolesť“. Španielsky a latinský pôvod predstavujú následné etapy jednej etymológie.

Sources and scholarly methodology: Vzťah Lola – Dolores dokladá FundéuRAE; latinský základ slova dolor uvádza RAE – Diccionario de la lengua española. Etymológiu a medzinárodné používanie dopĺňajú heslá Lola a Dolores. Skloňovanie je aplikáciou vzoru žena podľa Morfológie slovenského jazyka.
