What is the meaning of the name Loli ?

The baby name Loli is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced Spanish: /ˈloli/ (LOH-lee); English: /ˈloʊli/ (LOH-lee).

Loli is Spanish in Origin.

Loli is a Spanish diminutive of Dolores (and Catalan Dolors), ultimately from Latin dolor, “sorrow,” via the Marian title María de los Dolores/dels Dolors, “Our Lady of Sorrows.” It developed alongside Lola and Lolita as an affectionate hypocorism in Spain and Latin America; in some regions it now stands as an independent given name.

Usage rose in the mid-20th century in Spain as a familiar form recorded in parish and civil registers, and it remains common in parts of Andalusia, Valencia, and the Canaries, though rarer in English-speaking countries. Variants and related forms include Lola, Lolita, Loles, Loly, Dolo, and Dolores/Dolors itself. The name’s meaning carries a devotional sense of compassion through suffering. In contemporary online slang, loli can denote youthful-looking anime characters; while unrelated in origin, this association may affect international perception. Loli offers a bright, clipped sound with traditional Iberian roots and a vintage, intimate feel.
