Manola is of Italian origin, derived from the Latin word 'manus', which means 'hand'. This name has been popularized by the Italian writer and poet Manolo Blumstein, who used it as a pen name. It is often associated with creativity and individuality, reflecting its usage in artistic circles. In Italy, Manola is typically given to girls but can also be used for boys in some cases. The name is composed of five letters, beginning with the consonant 'm' and ending with the vowel 'a', giving it a melodic flow when spoken aloud. Its simple yet distinctive sound makes it memorable and appealing.
Manola experienced a peak in popularity between 1908 and 1926 with consistent birth counts ranging from 5 to 7 babies named Manola each year. However, after 1934, there is no further data suggesting that the name's usage might have declined or ceased altogether.
