One option is Molniya, the Russian word for "lightning." The Molniya orbit may share the same origin.
Mollitia (mo-LEE-sha) is another option, which is Latin for "tenderness."
Magnolia is a much more common name with Molly/Mollie as a nickname.
On the surname side there is Mollineau (moll-in-oh).
On the nature side you can find Moschatel (mos-sha-tell) or Moschatella.
And if you don't like these but want the nickname to sound similar, try Amalia with the nickname Mali.

There's also Mary, Marigold, or any other Mary name.
ReplyDeleteI see you included Amalia at the end. This is my grandmother's name, Amalia, pronounced uh-MALL-ee-uh. She has always gone by Molly.
