[dichroic]

Now, this is funny. From Babynames:

Paula
Origin: Latin
Meaning: small
Traits: Paula is described as a strong-willed, authoritative woman who complains when she does not get what she wants.

Traits: Polly is pictured as a real sweetheart--a cute, energetic woman with a cheerful and friendly manner.

Er, no. Or at least, not mostly.
