Name Help!

[Hosbird]

I am 15 week’s pregnant with no 2. We aren’t finding out the sex. We have a boys name sorted but we are struggling with the girls name.

I would really like to use Molly for a middle name as my my grandmas are Mary and Margaret and Molly is a pet name for both! Any ideas for a first name? We really like traditional classic names.

Our little boy is called William Rupert.

Thank you for your help!

Jemima
Caroline
Charlotte

Molly is a lovely name, I think it's lovely for a first named.

Elizabeth Molly?

I do like Molly as a first name. I just don’t know if it sounds a bit cutesy. somebody else in the family is Elizabeth and we also have a Charlotte in the family.

Our favourites at the moment is Philippa Molly or Isabelle Molly

Thanks for your suggestions so far!

Alexandra Molly
Charlotte Molly
Beatrice Molly
Eleanor Molly
Jemima Molly
Georgina Molly
Imogen Molly
Caroline Molly
Joanna Molly
Louisa Molly
Matilda Molly
Susannah Molly
Tabitha Molly
Josephine Molly
Vivienne Molly
Frances Molly
Hannah Molly
Philippa Molly

I prefer Phillipa to Isabelle plus Phillipa also has cute nn potentials.

Imogen
Juliet

Milly Molly (Mandy)?

I personally wouldn't go for Philippa in case you end up with Phil and Will! (You might not call them this but they'll have more control over their nicknames when they're older.)

Isabelle is nice, depends whether popularity bothers you.

Would you not consider Molly as a first name.

Not Isabelle. So many Isabels, Isabelles and Isabellas. Will be shortened to Izzy, which I don't like.
I'd use Molly as the first name.

Harriet Molly
Adeline Molly
Katrina Molly

My 22 year old cousin is molly and it suits her lovely. I also know of an elderly lady called molly :)

I'm a Philippa and I absolutely hate it! It's such an ugly name - don't burden your beautiful baby girl with it.

Isabelle is far nicer.

(As is Molly)

Antonia

What is the name you’ve chosen if it’s a boy?

I ask because I have a William, and am expecting DS2 and am really struggling with names.

Definitely not Philippa - as a pp said, Phil and Will! Isabelle is ok but very blah and overdone.

Francesca Molly
Cassandra Molly
Gabrielle Molly
Abigail Molly
Elinor Molly
Hannah Molly

I love the name Molly. I'd used it as a first name

Thank you for all your comments

I think I’m coming around to the idea of Molly as a first name but like a longer middle name - any suggestions? We can’t have Elizabeth as that has already been taken in the family and so has Annabel and Charlotte.

I think a longer middle name would help me with the cutesy sound of Molly.

If we have a boy, the name we have chosen to go with William is Samuel George :-)

Samuel George is lovely.

How about Molly Annelise?

Samuel George is great, good solid name.
I like Molly Matilda.
