"Louvet meant for it to be a Polish version of Louise"no.The Polish version of Louise would most likely be Ludwika.

I didn't mean that Louvet was CORRECT in thinking Lodoiska was the Polish form of Louise. But part of the story he wrote was set in Poland, so he probably created the name to "sound Polish" to his French readers.
