HelpIsla or Array (Baby name wizard)
I'll just ask you to look up Matilda and Holly for me as I can imagine that it's very annoying having to look up names for people all the time. I promise I won't ask for any more! Thanks.

Yep. :)
Matilda
Popularity: Rare
Style: Ladies and Gentlemen, Saints
Nicknames: Tilda, Tillie [editor's note: I think Tilly is much nicer], Mattie
Variants: Mathilda, Mathilde
Sisters: Adelaide, Louisa, Aurelia, Maude, Beatrice
Brothers: Leopold, Rudolph, Ambrose, Bertram, Foster
*In France and Scandinavia, Matilda/Mathilde is a hot name, a stylish sister for Sophie or Isabel. In the U.S., its image as a dusty antique still lingers. Consider this a chance to be ahead of the curve. Matilda's brightest days could still be ahead.
Holly
Popularity: #263
Style: Charms and Graces, New Classics, Nickname-Proof
Variants: Hollie, Holli
Sisters: April, Heather, Tara, Robyn, Laurel
Brothers: Lance, Brian, Brett, Heath, Derek
*This charming botanical is generations removed from Lily and Daisy, but gives off the same good vibes. A natural for girls born in the Christmas season.
For what it's worth, I think Holly and Matilda (nn Tilly) are both lovely.

Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
See the city's ripped insides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight

I'm amazed Holly is so unusual in the States! (It's #23 here, but I wish it were more unusual as I love it.) I can see that changing though ... Holly seems to be cropping up on all the boards :-)

Can't you just use the Behind the Name database?
Just go to the main page & type the name into the search.
I know for sure those 2 are in there.
Besides, this is the opinions board.
