Family Names

[being-lola-star.livejournal.com]

Seeing as my nickname is Lola, my dad linked me to an obituary for a  distant family member (I believe she was one of my grandpa's cousins?) whose name was Lola and had kept her maiden name - my family name, thus making her name very similar to mine.

Names in the obituary

Lola (age 91)
Her husband was Lionel
Her parents were Alcide and Carrie

She had five siblings (spouse names in brackets): Leo (Lucille), Lindy (Margaret), Lester (Margaret), Lloyd and Laura (Willard)

Lola and Lionel had three children: Leitha, Linda and Leo

That's a lot of l's.

Another family member left condolences and his name is Loyal. I would love to use that for a character at some point. Not sure if I would use it on a person.
