I think we're going to wait until we see her, but we are still leaning towards Holly. If she strikes us as a Margo though, we may change our mind! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183982 Tue, 19 May 2015 23:42:16 +0000 HabesBabe 2183982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love Margo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183940 Tue, 19 May 2015 22:14:20 +0000 photojane 2183940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the name Holly... it sounds so sweet! :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183888 Tue, 19 May 2015 21:06:44 +0000 getjazzy 2183888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer Holly as a name and as a Christmas nut myself, I love the meaning behind it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183832 Tue, 19 May 2015 20:11:15 +0000 bisous 2183832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: You are right--hardly anyone ever even questions whether I spell my name with a -y or an -ie. Everyone assumes -y. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183810 Tue, 19 May 2015 19:57:37 +0000 Mrs. Chocolate 2183810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love Holly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183784 Tue, 19 May 2015 19:24:19 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2183784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love Holly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183639 Tue, 19 May 2015 16:40:55 +0000 travellingbee 2183639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also I know several adult Holly's and never thought of it as little girl-ish!

I guess there are several spellings... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183479 Tue, 19 May 2015 14:51:29 +0000 78h2o 2183479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bisous: Oh, that's good to hear! I've never known anyone else named Holly to ask if they liked the name! :)</p> <p>@Foodnerd81: Thanks. That is one of the reasons we are leaning towards Holly. Even though some people spell it Hollie, the majority spell it Holly, so I don't think it would be misspelled very often. Margo on the other hand, probably would. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183464 Tue, 19 May 2015 14:44:38 +0000 bisous 2183464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love Holly. For the sentimental value it would have for you...and because I also love my name: Holly. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183412 Tue, 19 May 2015 14:18:30 +0000 snowjewelz 2183412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aww love Holly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183396 Tue, 19 May 2015 14:11:41 +0000 travellingbee 2183396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer Holly. And I like the sentiment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183226 Tue, 19 May 2015 12:40:18 +0000 Foodnerd81 2183226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like them both, but as someone who constantly had to spell her name for people and they still spell it wrong, I vote Holly. It's not a big deal when people spell it wrong but it is annoying. Every time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183175 Tue, 19 May 2015 12:14:43 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 2183175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like your reasoning for Holly &amp; think it's a great name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183091 Tue, 19 May 2015 11:46:16 +0000 jedeve 2183091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Holly is so sweet!

I don't KNOW, Margo!</p> <p>@78h2o: I also really love your meaning behind Holly and think the way you just described it would be perfect to tell others. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183070 Tue, 19 May 2015 11:30:08 +0000 cheesetomywhine 2183070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Holly.

I think the holly/Christmas connection is a great way to honor the memory of your grandmother. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183038 Tue, 19 May 2015 11:14:35 +0000 2PeasinaPod 2183038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Holly for sure! Unfortunately, Margo reminds me of Christmas Vacation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183033 Tue, 19 May 2015 11:11:12 +0000 Pancakes 2183033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am torn because I prefer Margo, but I think you have great reasons for using Holly. In the poll I voted for Margo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183026 Tue, 19 May 2015 11:07:37 +0000 Truth Bombs 2183026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not to throw another name in the mix but have you thought about Molly? It's technically a nickname for Mary, but ties in nicely as a nod to Holly, and goes well with Julia. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183022 Tue, 19 May 2015 11:06:55 +0000 dc yoga bee 2183022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Margo, and think it goes really well with Julia! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2183013 Tue, 19 May 2015 11:04:34 +0000 NovBaby1112 2183013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think your reasons for wanting Holly sway me that way, I think it would be a great way to honor your friend and it's a pretty name </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2182898 Tue, 19 May 2015 10:18:32 +0000 mrscobee 2182898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love Holly way more than Margo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2182895 Tue, 19 May 2015 10:15:55 +0000 catlady 2182895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Margo. It goes well with Julia and is closer to your grandmother's name than Holly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2182890 Tue, 19 May 2015 10:12:40 +0000 Anya 2182890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Holly hands down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/final-name-poll#post-2182889 Tue, 19 May 2015 10:12:27 +0000 LibbyLou 2182889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Prefer Margo but I'm a sucker for honor names! </p> <p>Would most people know Holly as reference to your friend? I don't think you need to announce the Christmas connection for your grandma. You know it's there. </p>
