Hi! I was wondering what the general opinion on the name Hollis is?? I've only ever heard it in books, so I'm unsure if it's popular or acceptable in real life. :] It's for a girl. I love the nickname Holly, so any of those longer variations work. (Holland, Hollis, etc.) Grazie!

I actually like Hollis a lot. She could have the nickname Holly as a child and when she got older she could use Hollis.

I have a grand uncle who was named " Hollis ". It was originally a male name, but this is one of those rare male names that can cross over with NO trace of boyishness. It is unusual :) and sounds contemporary, but not made up. I love it and would use it for a daughter in a heartbeat! Hollis is too cool for a nickname. Its beauty is its uniqueness. I really hope that it doesn't get popular and people start to spell it " Hahllyss" :(
