I had an aunt who was always called Lou. Her name was actually Louisa, but I didn't know that until I grew up. I'd say she"wore Lou well". :)

Its a wonderful short name (or even formal name for that matter) for a lady

I now tend to consider the name - the aggregate - amidst numerous variations (including Lewis, Louisa, Lois, Lulu / Lu - etcetera) to be more feminine; but I'm happy for males (Louis, Lewis, Louise, or Louise) as well.
