Mollie... Opinions?

[Oranges4you]

I think we have decided on Mollie, but would like to get opinions first!

Dislike, sorry.

Dislike. Molly is better but still ick.

It's a nice name but I'd spell it Molly otherwise she will spend her life correcting people.

Molly is better.

I have a Molly

Obviously I love it

I prefer Molly

Oh, all the Mollies I've met have been Mollie...

I prefer molly although I think it is way to cutsie. In spite of my own name rhyming with it!

Very old fashioned. Popular round here, there were 3 (all spelt Molly) in DD's nursery class.

I really like Molly! But not so much Mollie.

Lovely

DD1 is Hollie and I much prefer the -ie spelling for female names in general (a few exceptions obviously). They are both legitimate spellings. I don't think they are cutesy (whatever that means). I don't know many young ones though (all 20+).

You can see the popularity of Mollie/Molly over the last 100 years. They both entered the top 100 around the same time but Molly with a Y has always been the more popular version.

Love Mollie.

I have a Molly and she is almost 15. She has started spelling her name Mollie

I like Molly.

Too cutesy for me, sorry.

The only Molly I know is a labrador. It will forever be a dog's name for me, unfortunately.

Goes with all the other Tilly Milly Billy Dolly Maddie Holly - very similar and very popular - dates
