Pollyanne 

Pollyanne is a female name made up from joining two names together because one name on its own is not awesome enough for her.

Often mixed up with Pollyanna or Polly-anne - this is just wrong and any Pollyanne would deliver a slap to the person's left cheek for getting her name wrong.

Pollyannes are lovely.
Girl 1 "Hey, there's Pollyanne, she has such a good name!"

Girl2 " I know, let me ask if she wants to sit with us. Hey Pollyanna wanna sit with us?"

Girl2s Face - slap.

Pollyanne. " I was going to sit with you but your obviously a dumbwhit who can't hear or spell ! "

Girl2s Face - another slap.

The word "Pollyannaish" is derived from "Pollyanna," the heroine of Eleanor H. Porter's famous novel "Pollyanna" (1913), whose outlook on life was one of absolute optimism and whose problems were always straightened out in the end.

(Disclaimer: Not very modern, but still an urban term.)
"Although I've been raped and mishandled by a demon, I'm determined to remain optimistic, no matter what" is a perfect summation of being pollyannish.
