Matilda
Popularity: Rare
Style: Ladies and Gentlemen, Saints
Nicknames: Tilda, Tillie [editor's note: I think Tilly is much nicer], Mattie
Variants: Mathilda, Mathilde
Sisters: Adelaide, Louisa, Aurelia, Maude, Beatrice
Brothers: Leopold, Rudolph, Ambrose, Bertram, Foster
*In France and Scandinavia, Matilda/Mathilde is a hot name, a stylish sister for Sophie or Isabel. In the U.S., its image as a dusty antique still lingers. Consider this a chance to be ahead of the curve. Matilda's brightest days could still be ahead.
Holly
Popularity: #263
Style: Charms and Graces, New Classics, Nickname-Proof
Variants: Hollie, Holli
Sisters: April, Heather, Tara, Robyn, Laurel
Brothers: Lance, Brian, Brett, Heath, Derek
*This charming botanical is generations removed from Lily and Daisy, but gives off the same good vibes. A natural for girls born in the Christmas season.
For what it's worth, I think Holly and Matilda (nn Tilly) are both lovely.

I'm amazed Holly is so unusual in the States! (It's #23 here, but I wish it were more unusual as I love it.) I can see that changing though ... Holly seems to be cropping up on all the boards :-)
