[Opinions] Holly
Thoughts, opinions, the usual please. DH loves this name and brought it up with me again recently. I've always been really fond of it too, but kind of forgot about it a little. Would it work with older brothers Jasper and Jethro? Thanks.

Jasper, Jethro and Holly works very well

I've always liked Holly and find it friendly and approachable. I think it can fit a number of different types of girls. It doesn't make a big impression or stand out, though, which is the one downside I see with it. I don't particularly like it paired with Jasper and Jethro- those names seem somehow older and heavier than Holly. However, it does kind of fit with Jasper because they can both be interpreted as nature names.
I'm liking Holly more and more, it's even made its way into my top 10. I think it's pretty and classic but not overused. I like it with Jasper and Jethro =)
I ALWAYS think this name works. I am biased, as it is my twin sister's name. However, I would probably like it even if it weren't.
Its just so simple, pretty, strong, yet never that common and always recognizable. Plus, it has the nature theme going one without being one of those in-your-face nature names.
Yes, I do think it works with Jasper and Jethro.

Holly - this name rocks and is always appropriate

I love Holly. I'd consider it myself if it wasn't my cousins name ( though we hardly see each other).
Yes it does go with your son's names.

It's grown on me lately. I don't love it, but it's sweet. Jasper, Jethro, and Holly work fine together.
I like it. It's one of those names that never really got worn out yet pretty much everyone has heard it at some point. Good choice!
I always loved the name Holly. Jasper and Jethro are so matchy-machy, not just in starting with the same letter but in general feel, that Holly makes a nice contrast.
I have a cousin named Holly Noelle; she was born around Xmastime, so that's how she came by the name, or at least the combo. That's about as themey a name as I'd ever want.

I think we have covered this connection before, but maybe not...
My twin sister is named Holly-Noel (yes, Christmas babies).

Could you explain at all what makes Jasper and Jethro matchy-matchy? Because I was just thinking that they are so off-the-wall different than there is no name that could possibly not work with those two.
