What do you think of the name Kelly?
Kelly Elizabeth
Kelly Esme
Kelly Adriana
Kelly ..?
It’s unlike my usual name style, but I can actually see myself with a daughter named Kelly. I like it on a boy too.

I prefer Kelly for a boy and Kelliann for a girl.

It's so ... curly. Maybe all the Kellys I've met had curly hair, or maybe just one. Maybe it's the sound.
The name feels very "born in the 60s-70s" to me. So, just old enough that it's not too much of a mom name.
I like it alright, it's just the strong "around my age" association that puts me off. It's like Leslie that way.
I think it'd be more striking & appealing on a guy - like Leslie would. But, not bad for a girl either.

Curly haha, well I did always want curly hair.
Thank you for your honest opinion! It is very 60s/70s but think it’s “far away” enough to work.
I’m happy so many of you like it on a boy too, I thought I was the only one (:

I don't like it much, it sounds too modern and nickname-y.

Would you like it better as a nickname?

Kelly is one of the few names that, for me, really feel fitting on either a boy or girl. I get friendliness and a charming energy from it. Kelly Esme is my favorite from your list. Playing with possibilities...please forgive any repeats as I’ve not read your other replies...

Kelly Rhiannon
Kelly Samantha
Kelly Rosamund
Kelly Ottoline (because I love the Bloomsbury group as well)
Kelly Rosabeth - so sweet!
Kelly Georgiana

Meh. It's so dated and it always makes me think of a big, muscular, very athletic woman. Some might not find that a bad image, but it doesn't appeal to me. Weirdly, I love Callie.

Thank you for you honest opinion!
It’s strange how you like a name that’s very similar but not the other name. I have that too with some names.

Hi !!!
I think that Kelly is unisex.
I personally prefer it on a boy. Infact there is an unpleasant tie with a brand of shoes for children that I can't stand.
However I like Kelly because of the Irish heritage, because of the lovely shade of green and also because it reminds me Grace Kelly.
I would use it for a girl just as middle name because as first names seems cutesy in my opinion. I love it on a boy though.
I like Kelly Esme!
I suggest you:
Kelly Ofelia
Kelly Nuala
Kelly Georgiana
Kelly Olive
Kelly Jasmine
Kelly Naomi
Kelly Echo
Kelly Tessa
Kelly Dafne
Kelly Amity
Kelly Maya
Kelly Freyja
Kelly Victoire
Kelly Félicienne
Kelly Enfys
Kelly Susan
Kelly Bathsheba
Kelly Ngoc
Kelly Lián
Kelly Scheherazade
Kelly Badr

Kelly Sue
Would you consider naming her "Kelly Susan" or "Kelly Suzanne" - then using Kelly Sue (KellySue / Kelly-Sue) as nickname - at any spelling?
