I've never cared for Sally but I can understand wanting to honor a family member. What about using Sallyanne as a mn?

ETA: You could name her Sarah Anne or Sarah Grace and call her Sally, since Sally is another form of Sarah, right? And Anne basically means 'grace' so you could use either/or.

Thanks for your suggestions! I don't really like Sarah because it's so popular so I've chosen to go with Sally-Anne because I like it better.

I do like Sallyanne as a middle name still but I would like to use Sally as a first name. WDYTO Sally-Anne Mercy?

I don't love the flow but I do like Mercy. I also prefer Sally-Anne to Sallyanne. Sally-Anne Mercedes sounds a little better, but I can't get past the car association myself. lol. What about Sally-Anne Ruth, Sally-Anne Meredith? Good luck with finding a combo you love. :)
