hmmm well girls I did a little research on the name, and I am normaly not one to know or care much about meaning of names. BUT Mallory means Unlucky.
That seems so mean to have that kind of a meaning for such a beautiful name.
I can only picture little Mallory at 9 asking me mommy what does my name mean? Oh well honey name books says your name means unlucky.
I think I might have to go back to the drawing board once again. (sigh)
