I've lived in Mexico all this time and still had not realized that Lola was the nickname for Dolores. Incredible. I've had a couple of comments from others too and want to collate them in the next couple of days. Thanks Bob.

It is in Doña Lola's name. The name "Lola" ia a hypocoristic (diminutive ) of "Dolores". I also found a reference to "Dolores Clotilde" who supposedly wrote under the name "Lola P. de Pietrana" and was active in the 1950's and died at the age of 73 but don't carve any of this in stone because the evidence is pretty shaky.
