To sign the name Molly, you will fingerspell it. Start by forming the letter 'M' with your thumb tucked under your first three fingers. Then, transition to an 'O' by curving your fingers to meet your thumb. Next, form the letter 'L' with your index finger and thumb extended, and slide or bounce it slightly to the side to indicate the double 'L'. Finally, extend your thumb and pinky finger to form the letter 'Y'.
Sign 'My', then 'dog', followed by 'name', and finally fingerspell M-O-L-L-Y smoothly.

Yes, unless the person named Molly has been given a specific name sign by an active member of the Deaf community. Until you know their name sign, you should always fingerspell their name.
To indicate a double letter, you can either slide the 'L' handshape slightly to the side (away from your body) or give it a small, quick bounce. You don't need to drop your hand and form the 'L' entirely from scratch twice.
No, you should not mouth the individual letters (M-O-L-L-Y). Instead, you can naturally mouth the whole word 'Molly' as you fingerspell it. This helps the person reading your signs understand the complete word you are conveying.
