Comment on our girl names list

What a great list.

I like the Margaret/Maggie combo, Paige, and Molly. All good solid names though--just a matter of what sounds best with the middle and last names.

We have a Paige - love it. It is a good middle name too.

LOVE them all -- Jane, Margaret and Molly being my favorites. Margaret Jane is a cute name. Is Molly sometimes a Margaret nickname -- just trying to think of a way you can use all three!

Yeah, piping in on the Margaret/Molly bandwagon. Or Polly--I liked that idea!

All great names. I agree with PPs who said if you go with Molly that should be a nickname, not a full name.

Boring! And I'm not one of those people who like names like Addison or Jacksyn either. I'd go with Holly.

We just named our third Maggie - not Margaret and my sister and niece ( not her daughter) are named Molly, also not short for anything. I disagree that you need an 'adult' version of the name. Name your child what you like the most. FWIW, the only name on your list I dislike is Holly - but LOVE the rest of the names and find them very pretty and girly.

The only one who has any sort of issue with her name is Molly, who said she got tired of people singing "Good Golly Miss Molly" to her when she was a kid. But I doubt someone named Molly today would have that problem.


I'm a Molly, and I hated this song growing up, although my mother was actually the primary offender. Drove me crazy. On the other hand, I've never had anyone even ask if Molly was a nickname for something, and I've never felt like it was a little girl name. Of your list, though, my personal favorite is Margaret nn. Maggie.

From this list, I prefer Paige or Molly.

Holly has a very 70's-flower-child feel to me and Jane is just too plain (not to mention, "plain Jane" would be a crappy playground moniker).
