I love Molly.

Our daughter is Marie, which I also love (obviously) but not sure it’s “spunky” (though our daughter sure is!)

I like some of the suggestion you’ve already gotten:
Lucy
Sadie
Tess
June

Also like:
Kate
Ruth/Ruthie
Camille/Millie
Greta

I just love the name Molly, and in no way think it sounds "unintelligent". I like short, simple names ending in ie or y. This was our list:

Lucy
Sally
Anna/Annie
Magnolia nn Maggie
Genevieve nn Evie
Alexandra nn Alex or Allie
Sunny - everyone seemed to hate this name and ultimately that made us cross it off, but I still love it
Mary - family name that we would have coupled with something else as a double name

What about Maggie? Both Molly and Maggie are nicknames for Margaret I do believe. But you could even skip the longer name I think.


I think Molly is actually a nickname for Mary in it's origin but doesn't really matter because it's definitely it's own name at this point. I think of Maggie still as exclusively a nickname (for Margaret) but I suppose it doesn't have to be.


You are correct about nn origins:

But Maggie is defin not exclusively a nn. It was the 292nd most popular name in 2018; Margaret was 129, Molly was 158 and Mary 126.
