Lolita was a popular girls name. Then someone wrote a very famous novel named Lolita in which the character Lolita was a very precocious young girl who seduced older men. Now you will rarely meet a girl named Lolita, (because of that book) but people frequently name their dogs that. Because of the novel, in the Western world "Lolita" came to connotate all kinds of things to do with precocious young girls and pedophilia. Lolita is also a fashion, also sometimes known as Gothic Lolita or EGL. It is very much the opposite of what the girl in the book is. Lolita is based off of Victorian era girl's clothing, and shows little skin, and is a very innocent, modest, and elaborate look. Many people misunderstand and think this fashion relates to the book and that it is slutty and bad, but it is not.
