What do people think of this as a girl's name. Am newly in love with it!

Love this name!

Dixiechick17 · 03/07/2016 19:56

I love it, it was top of my list but DH wasn't keen.

DramaAlpaca · 03/07/2016 00:50

It's too cutesy for me.

Liz09 · 03/07/2016 00:46

I love Polly. It reminds me of Fawlty Towers (not a bad association!) Smile

ABCFamily · 03/07/2016 00:05

I like it. Also like Sally, which has the same feel to me.

DeltaSunrise · 02/07/2016 21:09

I love Polly.

My first thought was the Nirvana song but I don't think many will make that connection.

It's a lovely name.

Madbengalmum · 02/07/2016 20:44

Polly is a really sweet name.

pinkieandperkie · 02/07/2016 16:35

I love Polly.

KoalaDownUnder · 02/07/2016 16:30

I don't like it, or Penny/Penelope, at all.

Maybe I just don't like 'P' names.

Oysterbabe · 02/07/2016 14:12

I really like it. Also Molly and Nancy.

Bottomchops · 01/07/2016 08:54

Love. Polly, Audrey, Norah...

septembersunshine · 01/07/2016 08:41

I knew a Polly. I think it's really cute. Reminds me a bit of Molly which is another favourite of mine.

TooMuchCheesecake · 30/06/2016 21:02

Love it! I know one Polly. We have been friends since school and she's lovely.

MitzyLeFrouf · 30/06/2016 21:01

Pollyanna is pretty bad to be fair.

Woodenmouse · 30/06/2016 20:57

Love it! I wanted Pollyanna with Polly as nn but dh said no. We had 2 boys anyway so it didn't matter.

Wintersummerwintersummer · 30/06/2016 20:40

It's really sweet. I just personally know one who is the absolute opposite of sweet. She's a total cow so that would personally put me off. X

MitzyLeFrouf · 30/06/2016 20:32

I like it. Polly Toynbee stops it from being too cutsie!

Jooni · 30/06/2016 18:26

Love it! Very sweet.

I know a little Peggy, which I think is downright adorable.

WLmum · 29/06/2016 22:29

thisisbloodyridiculous · 29/06/2016 22:23

I like it but prefer Penny (bur used that on my car...)

LordTrash · 29/06/2016 21:28

I liked it so much I used it Wink.

Diddlydokey · 29/06/2016 21:28

Yip, had a dolly for me too. Bit of a pet name

CinderellaFant · 29/06/2016 21:27

Love it!! It's on my list along with Penny

Raines100 · 29/06/2016 21:27

Love it!

OutsiderInTheGarden · 29/06/2016 21:25

Yes! Lovely, OP.
