HelpRe: Holly
in reply to a message by Perrine
I love Holly. I think it's too close to Lily and Eilidh, but would be ok with a sibling named Isla. (Although I personally don't love Isla.) I would choose Holly or Lily, and if I had to pick another sort of similar name that wasn't so close that it matched, probably Cecilia or Rosalie.
Holly was pretty popular for my generation (born 1973 in the USA) but more popular a decade after I was born, just barely in the top 50 names. I don't think I've met a child named Holly since I was a child myself, but I wouldn't be shocked to hear of a baby Holly. It's a little retro in a cute way, not in a moldy way. It always makes me think of Holly Hobbie, whose art I loved when I was a kid. I had a Holly Hobbie drinking glass for my milk at dinner every night.
Please vote in my polls. I will love you forever!
