Really like 'Malory/Mallorie' but it means 'the unlucky one' - any ideas for something similar?

But not Valerie I'm looking for something more unusual...

So gutted as I love this name, but couldn't give it to my child with a meaning like that!

Any ideas?

I know a little girl called Marli

Hmmm, the more I think about the more I can hear it now as a girl's name.

Marnie is nice too

Marlowe sounds a bit masculine (sorry, should have specified I meant a girl's name, though don't know yet what am having, so actually, Marlowe/Marlow might do it!) Just always thought I would like Malory if had a girl this time..

Ooooh skyblu, Malloree is good - hadn't thought of spelling it like that. Wild spirit might be perfect, if DC2 turns out anything like DC1!

"Malloree" means Wild Spirit' in French

Marlowe? - don't know the meaning of it though.
