Meaning & Origin
Alternative spelling of Molly.
Mollie is a girl's and boy's baby name of Hebrew origin, an alternate spelling of Molly — a classic nickname for Mary, from Hebrew Miryam, meaning 'sea of bitterness' or 'wished-for child.'
The -ie spelling gives Mollie a slightly more vintage, British feel compared to the standard Molly. It's the kind of name that reads simultaneously old-fashioned and completely fresh — Mollie has been beloved in England for centuries, and it carries a warm, friendly, unassuming personality that's genuinely hard to dislike.
