Dh is adamant on Willow but i'm not sure now despite suggesting it. I am liking Joelly at the moment. And Connie.

Connie over Willow.

Plead avoid Joelly at all costs.

I prefer Willow. Not sure how you are pronouncing Joelly but in my mind it reads as Jo-Elly which sounds weird. Like Connie too

Willow is nicer. Joely or Jolie is alright, don't like it spelled Joelly, but much prefer Willow.

Connie is nice, as is Willow. Not keen on Joelly, especially with that spelling. How about Joelle or Joella?

I like willow but not joelly. Sounds like a corny nickname used by close family only for a baby called Joel to me. Not a take me seriously name.

Willow is much nicer than Joely... I've never heard that before. Is it pronounced like Angelina Jolie?

I thought Joely was spelled with one L otherwise it looks like Jelly.
