HelpRe: Holly
in reply to a message by Perrine
I know a Holly (mn Grace) who is 14. She's really beautiful (always has been) with blonde hair, blue eyes and is an elite dancer -- ranked one of the best in the US for her age category. Her mother's best friend is named Hollis (nn Holly) although I'm not sure if this Holly influenced the choice.
I think Holly is pretty yet I confess it annoys me when someone with the name is born out of season, lol. The Holly I know was born in June and that bugs me! :-) I don't believe it's perceived in a bad way where I live (US South). I've never heard anyone say anything negative about it. Between the two spellings you mentioned, I prefer Holly since it's the name of a plant. It's pretty and soft sounding although not really my style.
If I had to choose two names from your list, I'd choose Isla (really like this one)and Lily. Eilidh is pretty but wouldn't work where I live. I also agree with you that Lily, Eilidh and Holly are very similar. Imagine calling them all to dinner and that might resolve your dilemma!
Your words reveal who you think you are, but your actions prove who you really are.
