    Comment left Nov 03, 2008: "I really like my name, though since I am a 'Maggy' and not a 'Maggie' I usually have my name misspelledýI don't think I'd ever go by 'Margaret' though who knows? All in all both names are very cool and quite fun to have. It's not every day you meet a 'Maggy'ýunless it's a dog. Heh. People should all get together and name their dogs 'Sarah' or 'Emily' or 'Mary'." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 10, 2008: "Just named my baby Maggie after much thought. It's cute and makes me think of a determined, fun-loving girl. Margaret is on the birth certificate just in case she wants to go by Meg or Megan as an adult. I love those names, too. But most of all, I love Maggie!! John Stewart named his daughter Maggie, I believe. It's becoming more popular. Fun for a baby to call her "Mag-pie"." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 07, 2008: "I love my name. Maggie screams unique to me, the only downside to being a maggie is that it rhymes baddly :( other than that i'm in love with my name" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Sep 21, 2008: "My name is Marguerite and I go by Maggie. I have been called Maggie since kindergarten (you can imagine how hard it was to spell Marguerite at 5yrs old). I love to be called Maggs or Maggie. But I do love my real name as it has history and meaning to it. I love old fashion names. There are too many Jennys, Nicoles, ETC in the world. I named my first daughter Margaret and her teacher calls her Maggie Molly Margaret because she cant make up her mind what she wants to be called!!!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Aug 25, 2008: "my name is margaret i have never gone by anything but that in fact i dont like when people call me maggie its just not my thing" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Aug 25, 2008: "Just named my daughter Maggie. My mum is Margaret but didn't like that enough to call my baby!! I think people thought I was joking when I was pregnant and said I was naming her Maggie but now she is 4 months and can't imagine her being anything else - it is different and I think it is brilliant!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jul 22, 2008: "o k i love my name maggie but im the only one in my town named maggie the only one except for everybody's dog just about everyone in my neighboorhood has a dog named maggie sometimes i like it because i think they named thier dog after me but a boy in my class called me maggot before and i went home and cried i was so upset" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left May 10, 2008: "My name is Maggie, and I love it because it is such a fun name. The only thing that I regret about it is that there is another Maggie in my class and we are always confused." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Apr 14, 2008: "I spell my name maggi" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Apr 04, 2008: "My name is Maggie-NOT Margaret!!! I hate it when people ask me if margaret is my real name or not, and believe me its not! No offense to all you margarets out there but I really don't like that name, neither did my parents, but they really liked the name maggie sense that was my great grandma's name. Plus they didnt see the point in naming margaret when they were just going to call me maggie. Plus like i said before they don't like the name margaret because they said its too "old ladyish" but yeah I love my name because you dont hear it very often I've only met 2 other maggie's (But both of them were margarets) I love it because its unique too. Most of the girls my age are all named ashley,brittany, or sarah so im glad I got a name that kinda stands out." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Mar 31, 2008: "my real name is margaret...but i have gone by maggie my whole life. i LOVE my name because in the name itself there is just so much personality and spunk. i am very outgoing and very reliable and strong, which is what i think the name maggie means. the name maggie, which is english/latin in origin means "pearl." not only are pearls beautiful and every giel wants/owns a pair, it withstands time and realy pearls always look good!!! i just love my name! i must agree- there are definitley too many dogs names maggie- but they are always the best and cutest dogs!!!:) go maggies!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Mar 30, 2008: "this would be a great name, and i was going to name my daughter this, but then my aunt named her dog maggie, and you can't have the same name as a family dog!" (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Mar 21, 2008: "My name is Margaret. People Call me Maggie, Magnanamous (one of my favorite nicknames, quite random), and Miss Maggie. Mostly, it's just Maggie. I like it, it's cute. I don't think it's horribly elegant though, and I wish it was." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Mar 14, 2008: "Maggie Mae reminds me so much of Rod Stewart's song of the same name -- I think it's a sexy name!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Mar 04, 2008: "hehe this is my name as well. Mine IS Margaret Hehe I hate the name sometimes but I like how many nicknames people come up with for it. I go my mag, magito, maggs, maggie may" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jan 30, 2008: "My name is Maggie, Not Margaret. Although, it's the number one dog name in the united states and nothing cool ryhmes with it, i love the name. I was named after my aunt who was tall, funny and extroverted just like me, Maggie" (Report as inappropriate)
