Polly?

[BasilFaulty]

What do you think?
Any thoughts welcome!

I love it. Beautiful and underused

Nice but Amy Childs used it and ruined it for me...also
I’m slightly of the era where I hear Polly I think Pocket.

Put the kettle on.....

I love it

I love it, one of my favourite girls names.

I really like it. It sounds strong and confident. It's pretty without being twee.

As this is mumsnet, you need to have a proper name on the BC, just in case Polly ends up being an eminent surgeon or barrister, so I suggest Leopoldina or Poldarkina.

Awful. Sorry.

Really whiny and wet.

I like it.

I was a Polly Pocket obsessive as a child but when I hear Polly now, I don't think 'pocket'...if that reassures you!
I like it but it's quite frilly

Aaghahahhahahahahahahhahahhah

Yes, like a PP has just said it's pretty but not twee. That's a good way of describing it. For some reason I find it quite different to the likes of Poppy, Daisy & Maisie which I find very cutesy. Polly is stronger & I can't put my finger on exactly why.

I really don't like it. Wet and weak.

It is ok

Well it does remind me of Polly put the kettle on. I would prefer it as a nn for something also sorry!

I like it ! It's lovely

Love it. Would’ve used it myself but couldn’t convince dh.

Someone up thread mentioned Poppy, Daisy, Maisie, to me Polly is similar, it's like all kids have a slight variation of the same name, and all are twee.

Definitely not a cool name

I love it, I use it as a nickname for my DD. The nickname came from Polly Pocket as she was tiny when she was born and is still small and dainty.

I love it. I know a beautiful 4yr Polly.

Polly is a diminutive of Mary, if you want to be precise on the birth certificate

I like Polly but would use it - parrot/ pretty Polly (potential teasing especially if she's not conventionally pretty or has a plump or spotty teenage phase) and put the kettle on spring to mind instantly.

• but wouldn't

Leopoldina known as Polly is from a novel (Love in a Cold Climate). I know a Leopoldina known as Leopoldina, and I think it's lovely, but Polly on its own is quite enough.
I like Mary too.

It is sweet.

Funnily enough I got an Email from Argos this morning announcing the big return of Polly Pocket.
