Molly- 8/10 This name is unusual, I like it..

I walk my dog every day with in a park dozens of other dogs. Three-fourths of the females are named Molly. Maybe that's why it's unusual for a child

It's strange that people find Molly unusual. It is/was a very common nick name in Ireland from years past for Mary.

Sean - not a big fan. It just seems boring to me and a little dated.
Noah - used to love it, but am tired of it now.
Matthew - have never been a fan. dislike the sounds (love Mathias, though)
Andrew - see Matthew
Adrian - meh
Aiden - done to death
Alexander - ok, but too common for my taste
Joshua - see Noah
Julian - great name!
Daniel - see Noah

Girls-
Molly - nice, but I prefer it as a nickname
Kaitlyn - See Aiden, though it's a shame
Isabella - See Aiden
Emma - very popular, but I can overlook that as I think it's a lovely name
Ava - quickly becoming too popular
Elizabeth - very pretty with a lot of great nicknames
Grace - see Noah
Amanda - See Sean
Julia or Julie - see Alexander
Madeline - pretty!
Most are too common for my taste, but none are bad, imo.

Exactly the point. It's an old-fashioned name that until recently, few people had given to their baby girls in over half a century.

I had a pet fish named Molly. It was a black molly. Original, huh?

I knew a Molly growing up...she's a couple of years older than me, so she'd be about 40 by now.

I know two teenage Molly's and an early 20's Molly. Maybe it's regional.

I love the name Molly. Don't know anyone with the name though. I do see it when I do genealogy research, occasionally, and always several generations back.

My mother's name is Julie Anne. Julie and variants don't seem to be too common, but that's just my perception. I could be wrong. She almost named me Julianna but was told it would be conceited to so, so instead she stuck me with a boring top 100 name that screams 70's.
