No more children for me, but i keep looking at 3 week old DD2 and thinking she looks likeva Molly. Not the name we've gone with and completely doesnt go with our surname so will be sticking with the name we have given her but just looking for thoughts on Molly

I don't like Molly. Very bland.

It was the slang word for “period” in the area of Scotland I grew up in. “I’m on my molly” is what we’d all say.

It’s also the slang word for the drug ecstasy in a lot of America.

It’s lovely, and I know a wonderful 13 year old Molly so possibly that’s why I like it so much

However I really love Elspeth! It’s a gorgeous name but as a PP said possibly feels a bit grown up for a newborn, but she’ll soon grow into it!

I have a Molly - but she's a dog - and sadly, that's one of last years most popular dog names.

I love the name Molly. Always feels like the name of a fiesty and capable woman.
