Mollie/Molly?

[dancing-crazy.livejournal.com]

Which spelling do you prefer for the name? Molly or Mollie? I've been told by a few people it changes the "image" they get from the name. I tend to agree--I sort of like Molly, but it strikes me as almost mundane; while I find myself absolutely loving Mollie. What do you think?

I prefer Molly, but then, it's my name, so any other spelling would probably look strange to me. I think both are equally "common," and almost everyone misspells my name as "Mollie," so maybe Mollie is actually the "normal" spelling, I have no idea.

You have a pretty name :)

I don't know either. I think that you're bound to get your name misspelled. I'm Jillian, and people spell it Gillian all the time, which I find reasonable; but then, all the Gillians I know have it misspelled as Jillian. We're all doomed. ;-)

Heh, thanks, I've never cared for it, but maybe I'm just tired of it ;)
I prefer Jillian myself, but both are pretty. And yeah, it seems that no one ever gets their name spelled properly. I've met a Margret whose name was always spelled "Margaret" (okay, that I can understand), and a Margaret whose name was always misspelled "Margret." *shrug*

(and bitter. I've always wanted to be a Gillian.)
