I agree with ByTheSea- Marie or Maria is a lovely middle name and is a popular one in my family, several have used it including myself!

I have a Holly, i gave her the middle name 'Destiny' (mainly because i was young and stupid and wanted something different), Dd2's middle name is Marie (because its my middle name and my mums and my grandmothers).

I like the names Holly and Anna, but together they remind me of Pollyanna.

my DD2 is Holly Nicole.

I love it, even 14 yrs later (almost....she is 14 on the 24th), and more importantly, she likes her name too, which I am thrilled with as I think it is quite rare to like your name.

Holly Marie
Holly Joy
Holly Rebecca
Holly Catriona
Holly Fleur
Holly Francesca
Holly Carys

Crikey!

Holly anna becoming pollyanna had not occured to us!! scratch that from the list .

ideally middle name would begin with a "c" as she will then have the same initials as MIL. and we will be up to our necks in Brownie points .

I agree with LibbyLobster, not Holly Anna.

Holly Abigail
Holly Matilda

SqueezyB · 22/02/2010 08:52

I know a Holly Grace.

What is MIL's actual middle name? For extra brownie points you could use that, assuming it's not awful!

Holly Chloe
Holly Cassandra
Holly Clementine

actually, your suggestion of Holly Catherine is probably the best 'C' name!

Holly May
Holly Grace
Holly Jane
Holly Louise
Holly Kate
