Is molly a famous name

Answer 1

There have been a number of famous Mollys.

The most famous is Molly Malone - from the song of the same name:

In Dublin's fair city,

where the girls are so pretty,

I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone,

As she wheeled her wheel-barrow,

Through streets broad and narrow,

Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"

For a real life Molly, there was the Unsinkable Molly Brown - a fascinating American philanthopist and socialite. The Missouri born daughter of Irish immigrants married a man who would later make millions. She survived the sinking of the Titanic. Her real claim to fame was the work she did promoting workers rights, setting up soup kitchens and fighting for women's rights. Her name was Margaret, but after her death, she was affectionatly known as Molly.
