What do you think of Sally?

[mickeymistletoe]

DS is Billy. Do you think Sally goes with his name? if not any other suggestions welcome!

Sarah - shortened to Sally - is lovely. Don't like Billy and Sally - too ORT for me!

i like Lucy and Katy too. i just dont know any other little Sallys so it appealed all the more. My mum is lobbying for Libby or Polly. DH is useless and comes up with nothing!

My father (he of brother Bill and sister Sallie) also has a sister Catho (short for Catherine). And there is a Lucy and a Lucie in our family.

Polly is lovely, but again, not so great with Billy.

Our cat is called Sally (named after the blue porsche in Cars ] and she is lovely.

ha, i better hope this beans a boy!

I like Sally. One of my best friends is a Sally and we refer to her as Happy Sally, because she is!!

I like Sally, it's quite unusual these days. Polly is nice too!

But I suppose the 'lly' repetition won't appeal to everyone.

go with Samantha/Sammy - goes nicely with Billy.

DH suggested Sally. I'm not sure about it.

I like the name Sally, I once knew a Sally who was absolutely gorgeous (and a lovely person to boot) so my opinion of the name is coloured by that. But I still like it as a name.

I like Sally, I was all set to open thread and say, lovely change! BUT not with Billy.

It's not just that they both have two syllables and end in Y, they both end in lly!

Too much! Kerry Katona has a Molly and a Lily.

Some of Anna8888's names and ggirls names are lovely.

Anya, Clara, Beth, Joy, Sadie, Phoebe, Libby (same letters as billy, but it still works better!), Rosie

Actually, Susan and Billy, there is something so break the mould about that! That would be quite cool! And Susie is lovely.

Billy and Susie, Oh I love that combo!

i hate it i'm afraid. but then MIL is called sally so say no more

and agree with others who say it sounds like kids tv presenters with billy.

Sally is a bit of a "droopy drawers" name, IYKWIM.

It's awful. it's like Dolly - it's just...yuck

I vote for 'sarah' shortened to 'sally'
(I am biased tho ;))

I like Sally. But not with Billy.

How about Kate/Katy, Anna, Julie/Julia, Susan, Rachel, Lucy?

Sally = dull. sorry

oh well, i did ask!! back to the drawing board! now for a boy i was thinking of Bobby.. just kidding

LOL mickeymistletoe at Bobby, because my father's other brother is called Robert .

My father is called David, btw.

How about Alice, for a girl? I think it sounds really nice with Billy.

Alice is lovely but when i mentioned it to DH he automatically said "alice, alice who the is alice." not the best of songs to keep hearing.

others i quite like are
Kitty
Maisy
Lucy
Kate
Lois

also keep coming back to Emma, mainly because of the book i think.

Makes me think of Sally Webster from Corrie.

Clare? I love Clare!
