And I do not like the name </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1193163 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 23:12:49 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1193163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats! I like it! I'd pronounce it Holl-lynn. Is that that right? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1193086 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 21:22:11 +0000 Running Elley 1193086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's really pretty!! I do think that people would get confused about it vs. Holland though. Overall I think the name is really cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1193082 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 21:18:41 +0000 boots 1193082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like it!

It's unique but not totally out there. I've never heard it before! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1193007 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 20:41:42 +0000 kentuckygirl 1193007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I LOVE it! I have an acquaintance who named her daughter Hollyn. I would consider using it except it is so unique it would be obvious I stole her daughter's name! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192951 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 19:40:44 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1192951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Amelieisme: oh, well then Hollyn is perfect! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192945 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 19:34:10 +0000 Amelieisme 1192945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: no, like collin.

I debated on just Holland, but I think that's a Dutch boy name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192814 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 18:03:01 +0000 birdofafeather 1192814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How do you pronounce it? It's confusing to me like it should be Holly-lynn but it's not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192806 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 18:00:01 +0000 Foodnerd81 1192806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't love it or hate it, but I would be afraid she would have to repeat it and spell it her whole life. But what matters is if you love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192803 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 17:59:27 +0000 Ree723 1192803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like it would constantly be written as Holland. When I said it aloud, they sound remarkably similar. Other than that, I don't mind it but don't particular love it. I do love Holly though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192802 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 17:59:16 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1192802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel it's a sweet name that is not babyish. It's unique to me. I have heard of Holland as a last name, but not Hollyn as a first name. Great choice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192798 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 17:57:28 +0000 fussygal 1192798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Very pretty!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192787 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 17:53:38 +0000 QueensBee 1192787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had never heard the name before but I love it!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192771 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 17:40:08 +0000 stargal 1192771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So pretty I adore it! What about rose as a middle.name?<br /> Eta just saw your last name...hmm not sure if rose would work with Rhodes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192769 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 17:38:25 +0000 Ra 1192769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!

Congrats on your baby girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-this-name#post-1192767 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 17:36:29 +0000 Amelieisme 1192767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just found out we are having a girl! We have a boy now so I'm pumped to have one of each. We are struggling with a name though. How do you feel about Hollyn for a girl? Suggestions for a middle name? Our last name is sort of like Rhodes. </p>
