Molly?

Hi,
We have an Isla & Poppy. We like Molly for our third but not sure if it sounds to similar to Poppy?
For our other 2 girls we liked Emilia, Ivy, Alice, Phoebe & Sophia.
Any ideas welcome
Thanks

I love all your other names in preference to Molly except Emilia, although I do like Molly too. It probably is a bit similar to Poppy for my liking, but I doubt people would necessarily notice. If you love the name I would go for it!

It probably is quite similar but not terribly so. If you really like it I'd go for it, I don't think anyone would really notice.

In terms of your other names, personally I am not a fan of Emilia or Alice but Ivy, Phoebe and Sophia are lovely names.

What about Milly instead of Molly?
I know sisters Isla and Amelie too and people always comment on their names.

I personally would look for a name that doesn’t have a y or a ending, so they are all different. Phoebe or Alice. But I think Molly is OK and not too matchy matchy.

I think Alice or Sophia would go best with the sibling names.

lissa93 · 11/06/2020 16:56

In terms of siblings, Alice goes best when you say them together: But remember they will be individuals bla bla bla and choose what name you actually like best!

I prefer MOLLY :) But i may be biased ;)

I like Alice or what about Sophie, Emily (rather than Emilia), Emma, Ella, Tilly, Jane or Charlotte?

I think Molly is lovely - I agree that it sounds similar to Poppy but it's not massively noticeable. Sophia is nice too.

HelmutShmacker · 11/06/2020 18:46

I really like Molly, I think it goes well

I don't like Molly at all. Very dull and harsh sounding. Sounds like an insult.

I love Sophia and think it goes beautifully with Isla and Poppy. It also flows better than Isla, Poppy and Molly.

I like Molly and think it goes fine with your other girls names. Sophia is lovely too

I LOVE Molly - sounds perfect with Isla & Poppy. Lovely names
