History:

It is usually thought of as a short form of names such as Louise or Louisa, which means "famous warrior" in Old High German, or perhaps from names such as Luise, meaning "light." However, this name also works on its own, having a fun and lovable feel. Think of it as a word that brings to mind comfort and love. This name probably became common because it is easy to say and sounds soft, making it a popular term of endearment in different cultures.

Description:

Lulu is a short, pleasant name that seems like it would make a good nickname. Loulou is a similar, slightly more elaborate spelling of this name.

LULU, pronounced /ˈluːluː/, has two syllables, "Lu" said twice. While the pronunciation is generally consistent, some might pronounce the "Lu" with a slightly shorter "u" sound, like the "u" in "put." Emphasizing both syllables equally is key for clear pronunciation of this name.
