Jennifer Lopez

Names: J.Lo, Jenny from the Block, La Lopez, Lola

Don't be fooled by the many names that she's got — she's still Jenny from the Block! The Puerto Rican entertainer is most well known for her abbreviated and easy-to-say name – J.Lo.  But during an appearance on the entertainment show Extra, Lopez shared her most recent nickname, Lola.  The nickname was given to her by her husband, Marc Anthony.  “My husband calls me that sometimes, when he’s feeling nice towards me,” she said.  “When he’s loving me!”
