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

Makes me think of a parrot. Or 'Polly put the kettle on' nursery rhyme Confused

ClaireFraser · 29/06/2016 21:01

I love it! One of my fave names, both classic and unusual

Vixxfacee · 29/06/2016 21:20

Terrible

LillyVonSchtupp · 29/06/2016 21:21

Really dislike.

LadyAntonella · 29/06/2016 21:22

Love it! It's on my list for any future babies.

ScarletForYa · 29/06/2016 21:24

Makes me think of: miss Polly had a dolly who was sick, sick, sick...etc

OutsiderInTheGarden · 29/06/2016 21:25

Yes! Lovely, OP.

Raines100 · 29/06/2016 21:27

Love it!

CinderellaFant · 29/06/2016 21:27

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

Diddlydokey · 29/06/2016 21:28

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

LordTrash · 29/06/2016 21:28

I liked it so much I used it Wink.

thisisbloodyridiculous · 29/06/2016 22:23

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

WLmum · 29/06/2016 22:29

Love it! Very sweet.

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

MitzyLeFrouf · 30/06/2016 20:32

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

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

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

MitzyLeFrouf · 30/06/2016 21:01

Pollyanna is pretty bad to be fair.

TooMuchCheesecake · 30/06/2016 21:02

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

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.

Bottomchops · 01/07/2016 08:54

Love. Polly, Audrey, Norah...

Oysterbabe · 02/07/2016 14:12

I really like it. Also Molly and Nancy.

KoalaDownUnder · 02/07/2016 16:30

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

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

pinkieandperkie · 02/07/2016 16:35

I love Polly.
