Same here. I like Daphne, but Polly just reminds me of Polly Pocket. haha Either that, or a name for one of those chihuahua dogs.

Daphne just makes me think scooby doo. Its kind of cutesy too.
And Polly makes me think of parrots.
So..not a fan.

I like Daphne okay, mostly because of positive associations, and don't care for Polly. No real reason, I just don't like it.

I like Daphne a lot, but I don't like Polly at all.

daphne is nice, always strikes me as very serious so i don't have the scooby doo association at all. polly is horrible. makes me think of sour-faced old maids, lolz.

Not a fan of Polly, but I love Daphne. I don't think Scooby-Doo when I hear it - I actually think class. Polly's definitely cutesy. It's like it should be short for something, and the full name options aren't much better.

Daphne's one of my favorite names! Polly only works as a nickname or a little girl's name, though.

Daphne is lovely, one of my favourites. It reminds me of Scooby Doo but to me that's not a bad thing, lol.

Polly.... no.

I love Daphne. It's my favorite girl's name. I do think of Scooby Doo and Frasier when I hear it, but I also think of a dear family friend, and the Greek myth. My first daughter will be Daphne Margaret.

Polly is so Polly Pocket and a Nirvana song to me. It's not bad, but I wouldn't use it. It's too nicknamey to me. If I was going to name my child Mary or Penelope, I might use Polly as a nickname.
