What is Lola short for?

Deloris?  Any other names besides that?  I like it as a nick name, but would like it to go with a longer, more official name - suggestions???

Maybe contact Barry Manilow? 

In all seriousness, I like it as a nickname but have no idea what it could a nn for.

Lolita?

Honestly, I've never heard it used as a nickname, only a full given name.

Delores according to Name Berry.

Lola and Lolita are both nicknames for Delores. You could probably push it by choosing another formal name with Lo in it, though.

Maybe Lordes?

I have only seen it as a stand alone name not a nn.  I guess it could also be a nn for Louise, Eloise, Charlotte...

My name is Leonie and my nn is Lola, it is easier for people to say and spell. It was a name that was given to me in college when we would go out 

I know it is Spanish for Little Woman and is usually a term of endearment for a grandmother.

I had a little Nigerian girl in my class a few years back named Oluwadamilola (Oh-lou-wah-dahm-ih-lo-la). She went by Lola...though that name might be a little heavy. Haha

Deloris, Dolores (the spanish version), Lourdes...

I've seen it in several places suggested for a nn for Charlotte. I guess from the Lo part. I'm considering that becuase i love charlotte but hubby hates charlie and lottie   but i cant quite get past copa cabana song myself.

What about Viola. It's not much of a nn since it only chops one syllable off, but it might work.

I immediately thought of Charlotte.
