Molly Name Meaning

Just like Mollie, Molly is the pet version of Mary. Although this name is popular regardless of "Mary". Originally, different variations of this name all come from the Hebrew name "Miriam".

The reason why believe that this word is the origin of Mary is because in the Bible Miriam and her family were born in Egyptian captivity.

I've always loved the name Molly. I don't think it should mean "bitter" because it's actually beautiful. If I have a baby girl I'm naming her Molly. All I need is a second name. Any ideas?
