Meaning & History
Most likely a variant of LOES. It was most likely influenced or inspired by the French language, in the sense that the name is spelled in such a way that it is recognizable and thus easy to pronounce for French speakers (which LOES would not have been). Also compare LOESJE, which is rather similar in pronunciation.A known bearer of this name is the Dutch former politician Lousewies van der Laan (b. 1966). She has six given names on her birth certificate, the first of which is Louse.
