I like [name]Molly[/name] but [name]Mollie[/name] is a knockout in my opinion. Sheā€™s much more girlie, old-fashioned and charming. Iā€™m probably in the minority but I just think [name]Mollie[/name] takes [name]Molly[/name] to a whole new
level.

4

I looooove this name, itā€™s so gorgeous. I honestly like both spellings, but [name]Mollie[/name] is a little bit ā€˜frillyā€™ to me, so Iā€™d pick [name]Molly[/name]. [name]Lovely[/name] name either way though.

5

[name]Molly[/name] is one of my top picks and I prefer this spelling : )

6

I prefer the spelling [name]Mollie[/name] but I can see the whole ā€œItā€™s not ā€˜yā€™, itā€™s ā€˜ieā€™ā€ getting a little annoying.
I think, with such a pretty and friendly first name you can go one of 2 ways with mn. You can continue with cute and familiar and chose something short and sweet like:
[name]Rose[/name]
[name]Rae[/name]/[name]Ray[/name]
[name]Elise[/name]
[name]Anne[/name]
[name]Bay[/name]
[name]Blue[/name] (A little unusual but [name]Mollie[/name] [name]Blue[/name] is lovely, I think)
[name]Ella[/name]
[name]Sue[/name]
[name]Grace[/name]
[name]Hope[/name]
[name]Faith[/name]
[name]Joy[/name]
[name]Dora[/name]
[name]Nora[/name]
[name]Ruth[/name]
[name]May[/name] (Though [name]Mollie[/name] [name]May[/name] isnā€™t great, imo)
[name]Poppy[/name]
[name]Daisy[/name]
[name]Sun[/name]/[name]Sunday[/name]
[name]Jo[/name]
[name]Josie[/name]
[name]Joan[/name]
[name]Lou[/name] or [name]Louise[/name]
[name]Kate[/name]
[name]Belle[/name]

Or, you could contrast it with a more sophisticated and longer middle name:
[name]Alexandra[/name]/[name]Alexandria[/name]
[name]Evangeline[/name]
[name]Seraphine[/name]
[name]Josephine[/name]
[name]Elizabeth[/name]/[name]Elspeth[/name]
[name]Rosalie[/name]/[name]Rosalind[/name]/[name]Rosaline[/name]
[name]Isadora[/name]
[name]Isabelle[/name]
[name]Victoria[/name] (Or my favourire french variant [name]Victorie[/name])
[name]Carolyn[/name]
[name]Katherine[/name] (this has the added benefit of shortening to [name]Kay[/name] or [name]Kate[/name]. I think, while sheā€™s young, [name]Mollie[/name] [name]Kate[/name] or [name]Mollie[/name] [name]Kay[/name] is very cute)
[name]Bethany[/name] (Again, shorten it to [name]Mollie[/name] [name]Beth[/name] and thatā€™s very cute)
[name]Annaleigh[/name]
[name]Annabel[/name]
[name]Lucille[/name]
[name]Ellamae[/name]
[name]Elodie[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Isla[/name]

[name]Hope[/name] I helped!

Iā€™d go with [name]Molly[/name], for clarityā€™s sake.
[name]Molly[/name] [name]Jane[/name] would be precious!

8

I have a thing for -ie names, so I like [name]Mollie[/name] better, but I do know that it would be annoying to correct someone all the time. I just think [name]Mollie[/name] is so much cuter, but there is nothing wrong with [name]Molly[/name] either.

9

Iā€™ve only seen it spelled [name]Molly[/name], but goshā€“[name]Mollie[/name] is so much nicer. I love [name]Mollie[/name]. [name]Don[/name]'t like [name]Molly[/name]. Thatā€™s how much a spelling can change an opinion of a name. To me, [name]Mollie[/name] is girly and pretty where [name]Molly[/name] is tom-boy and plain. I wouldnā€™t even care how many people misspelled it!

10

Well, my name is [name]Molly[/name], so I love it.
[name]Mollie[/name] just seems more like a dog name, but itā€™s still pretty.
For middle names, I really like Bā€™s, not just because mine is [name]Beth[/name], but because a cute nickname is always ā€œ[name]Molly[/name] Bā€, which is what mine always was.
Also, I really like [name]Molly[/name] [name]Anabelle[/name] or [name]Molly[/name] [name]Isabelle[/name].
[name]Hope[/name] this helped!

I am [name]Molly[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name]ā€¦I always wanted [name]Mollie[/name]ā€¦but truthfully never liked my name growing upā€¦ but there is a fish called a [name]Mollie[/name]ā€¦ which always bugged me .

[name]Molly[/name] [name]Michaela[/name]
[name]Molly[/name] [name]Violet[/name]

13

to me it would have to be [name]Molly[/name].

14

my irl name is [name]Kelly[/name] and I am constantly just saying or telling people ā€œ[name]Kelly[/name]ā€¦with a Yā€ just do it right off the batā€¦so no matter what she will just get used to doing thatā€¦no biggie. [name]Mollie[/name] is cute. like super cute.
But depending on what ā€œlookā€ youā€™re going for you might like a one syllable

[name]Mollie[/name] [name]Ray[/name]
[name]Mollie[/name] [name]Mills[/name]
[name]Mollie[/name] [name]Sam[/name]
[name]Mollie[/name] [name]Blue[/name]

Those names are adorbs and people will be more apt to call her by her two names which I think is sweet.

15

[name]Molly[/name] is best imo.

[name]Molly[/name] [name]Jane[/name]
[name]Molly[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]
[name]Molly[/name] [name]May[/name]
[name]Molly[/name] [name]Joan[/name]
[name]Molly[/name] [name]Adele[/name]

16

[name]Molly[/name]. Unless thereā€™s a family reason, just save the headache. When she gets older if she decides she prefers [name]Mollie[/name], she can spell it that way if she wants to!
BTW, itā€™s interesting, if you look at the SSA lists - several names where this is possible have flipped over the years - I think in the past, to be fair, [name]Mollie[/name] was the more common spelling (could be remembering wrong though). So it doesnā€™t look made-up or wrong to me personally or anything like that. But I still think [name]Molly[/name] is preferable.

17

[name]Molly[/name], for sure. [name]Mollie[/name] seems kinda cutesy, and sheā€™d forever be spelling her name out for people.

18

I had this same question on my mind nearly 20yrs ago when I named my second daughter (baby names are still relevant to me-Iā€™m having #6 in [name]May[/name]!). The second I found out she was a girl, I knew I wanted to name her [name]Molly[/name]/[name]Mollie[/name], but I struggled to choose a mn and a spelling. I went with [name]Mollie[/name] because it looks prettier to me. Yes, she has to spell it for people, but she loves her name and has told me she likes the spelling I chose. She agrees that it seems more feminine and is a bit different as itā€™s not what people first expect. Her mn is [name]Kathryn[/name]. BTW, with either spelling, a ton of people will say, ā€œ[name]Mollie[/name] is my dogā€™s name!ā€, but donā€™t let that stop you, [name]Mollie[/name] is gorgeous!!!

19

I think it depends on what other names you like. I myself prefer [name]Mollie[/name] because my list is very vintage and classic. If you prefer more popular and trendy names though, then I would go with [name]Molly[/name]. :slight_smile:

20

[name]Molly[/name] is better, [name]Mollie[/name] might seem cute for a baby / toddler but she will be a grown up one day and [name]Molly[/name] will suit her for her whole life, not just childhood.
