We're looking for a girls name. DD is Mollie (Please don't be mean about her name- I loves it and I'm a weepy pregnant lady) looking for something that goes with this.
I have no ideas! Did like Eliza but I don't like Liza as an abbreviation any suggestion most welcome.
Thanks!

I really like Molly but agree with pp I'd avoid other names ending with -y -ie -ey sounds

Edith
Rosalyn
Ruth
Alice
Kate
Cara
Eleanor

I'd also avoid Amelia to avoid the nn Millie!

Thank you! Some lovely suggestions to take back to DH. Not allowed a Nora unfortunately- Aunty Nora's deathbed request that no one was to be inflicted with her name!

I agree that I would avoid other y or ie endings. I like Mollie and:

Hannah
Emma
Rosa/Rosanna
Edith
Flora
Clara
Annabel

I like Sybil too!

Why would you shorten Eliza to Liza? IEliza wouldn't even be Ellie, just Eliza.

I know one Molly. She's thirty and I loved her name when I first heard it. Made me think of Ulysses.

To differentiate I'd choose a name without the y or ie ending.

Vera
Anna
Tegwen, Tiggy nn.
Faith
Tamsin
Nell
Nora
Bethan

What about Elsie - I love it, or Ivy.

I have always been in a minority of one when it comes to Sybil but I'm throwing it out there for you to consider. A Mollie and a Sybil sounds good to me.
