Give Lottie a notebook that's unmistakably hers. Lottie's Notebook has her name in elegant script over a pink watercolor apple blossom cover.
Lottie is a diminutive of Charlotte or Liselotte, says Behind the Name, so every Lottie has a grand full name in reserve. Charlotte is the French feminine diminutive of Charles, and Behind the Name says it was introduced to Britain in the 17th century and later borne by Charlotte Brontë, author of Jane Eyre.
Behind the Name lists Charley, Charli, Charlie, Charly, Tottie and Totty as English relatives, and Lotta as the Swedish form. A Lottie can always switch to Charlotte for formal occasions.
Lottie Dod, born Charlotte Dod in Cheshire in 1871, won Wimbledon at just 15 in 1887. Wikipedia says she remains the youngest ladies’ singles champion and won the title five times. She also won the British Ladies Amateur Golf Championship, played field hockey for England, and took silver in archery at the 1908 Olympics. Guinness named her one of the most versatile female athletes of all time.
Lottie was a Victorian favorite. US Social Security data has it at 80th in the 1880s and 93rd in the 1890s, and in the top 200 until the 1910s, when more than 10,600 American girls were named Lottie. Behind the Name says it ranked 31st in England and Wales in 2025.
Each Christmas, Southern Baptists give to an offering named after a Lottie. Wikipedia says Lottie Moon was a missionary who spent nearly 40 years in China, from 1873 to 1912. The first “Christmas offering for missions” in 1888 raised enough to send three new missionaries, and the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering has since raised more than 1.5 billion dollars. Today it pays for half of the Southern Baptist Convention’s international missions budget every year.
Lottie’s Notebook works just as well for a teenager as for a grandmother. It’s 6" x 9", which fits in most bags, with 160 lined pages and no printed layout to work around. Use it as a diary, a school notebook, a planner or a place to collect quotes and ideas. A name on the cover turns an everyday notebook into something personal.
A plain notebook is useful. One with her name on it is a gift. Seeing “Lottie’s Notebook” on the cover tells Lottie it was chosen for her, not grabbed off a shelf, and that small touch is often what makes people keep a notebook going instead of abandoning it after a week.
How big is Lottie’s Notebook? 6" x 9", or about 15.2 x 22.9 cm. It’s a paperback with 160 lined pages inside.
