Our baby girl is due next Tuesday. I can’t believe it, woohoo!
Sooo my partner has been favouring Molly, where I quite like Mollie. But now I don’t know lol! What does everyone think? Or do we have to flip a coin? WinkGrin

Molly. It's a MUCH nicer name without the 'circle over the i' potential. I've come across Hollie and Poppie too, I just don't understand it...

Molly.
Definitely choose a correctly spelled name.

I agree with @TrippingOnSunshine our dd is Lucie and I'm forever even after 18 years having to say with an ie. clearly hadn't thought it through when picking out her name 😖

I prefer Molly. Otherwise it's a lifetime of "with an ie"

Molly.

Mollie makes a sweet name a bit too twee.

Well seeing it’s my friend Molly’s birthday today, I think that’s a sign for you!
