  It seems dated and not in a good, chic way. Not a name I'd ever consider.

  I personally think it seems bit "olden days" which is perfectly fine if that is what you want / like. If you wanted something more modern then I would change it.

  I know 30, 60 and 90 year old Sallys. If you love it, it's common enough to work.

  I think Sally Mae, the loan company that bugs me on a regular basis to pay back student loans... Bad association for me personally.

  I wouldn't use it personally but don't hate it. I know a little girl with the name and she does a ton of compliments.

  I don't like Sally.  It's one of those names that the more I say it the less I like it and the more ridiculous it sounds.

  I have an Aunt Sally (in her 50's), but her real first name is Sarah - if you wanted to go the nn route. I kind of love Sally as a stand-alone, though!

  Yes! You must! She is the main character's daughter, so she doesn't get truly badass until a few seasons in when she's a little older.

  Sally is traditionally a NN for Sarah however there have been many awesome Sallys (Field, Ride, etc) that were legally named Sally. I am not usually one to go for NNs as full given names, but it's cute and can probably be passable. By passable, I mean that I do not think she would have people assuming her full name is Sarah. It does read a bit older, but a lot of old school names are coming back around.

  It has some very weird geek chic.. I'm not entirely sure if it's my style or not. But I think I'd smile a little if i met a little girl named Sally.
