Comment left Sep 18, 2009: "my real name is margaret being named after my grandmother, buy my parents thought the name was a little old-fashioned so the nicknamed me maggie. i always hated the name, but people say it is cute and since there is a maggie in breaking dawn i love my name - and the more i think about the more rare and beatiful it sounds, barely anyone has the name, expect one other girl in my entire high school who is in my math class" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Aug 14, 2009: "My parents named me Margaret after my grandmother. I preferred Maggie when I was younger. But as I got older, I got to thinking, EVERYONE who's name is Margaret knows it's an older name, so they might all be changing their names to Maggie. But, while they are going by Maggie, I will be one of the few going by Margaret (: I wish it stood for something cooler than "pearl". D:" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Aug 12, 2009: "I am only a Maggie....My parents say its because Margaret is such a stuffy serious name and it didnt go with my fun loving attitude...i am always excited to meet other maggies! they are always pretty fun people!!!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jul 30, 2009: "My full name is actually Margaret Helen, but i just go by maggie unless I'm in trouble or something haha. I really, really hate it because it sounds soo old and boring but all these other people think it's really cute and fun-loving, so after reading all this I don't think i hate ie as much. I think it's pretty cool that it means pearl and also kinda weird that most people with the name Margaret have dark hair and dark eyes. I feel kinda left out because I have red hair and kinda like aquamarine colored eyes." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jul 06, 2009: "We decided we wanted to call our daughter Maggie - and I thought Margaret would be a good name for the birth certificate, but my husband didn't want Margaret as it is my mother's name!!! So we named her Magdalen. I like the way Magdalen rolls off the tongue and I think Maggie suits her- I think she will be a confident and fun loving little girl - she is already showing signs of a cheeky sense of humour and she often has a sparkle in her eye. She's 12 months old." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jul 06, 2009: "Personally I cannot stand when people use nicknames as legal first names. Names like Maggie(my nm), Katie, Jess, Tom, and John are nick names NOT full names. I do actually go by both Margaret and Maggie depending on what it is that I am doing. With work or formal settings I use Margaret and with more casual settings I go by Maggie. The down side with Maggie is that it rhymes with some bad things. I remember once in high school I got so embarrassed because we had to read The Great Gatsby and people were laughing about the old fashioned names and of course my teacher had to point out how my name was just as old fashioned as the ones in the book."

Comment left Apr 25, 2009: "I named my daughter Maggie - despite my mother's objections...she wanted Margaret! It was my daughter and as soon as she came out, she cried and was very much like "I'm here"! I knew her name fit. It's a fun and strong girls name, and I wouldn't have it any other way. We do call her Maggers, Mags, and Megamo, but she's a little blond dynamo and her name fits her to a T!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Mar 11, 2009: "did u know that the name maggie means 'peral'!! wow i discovered this today. i used to not like this name because people call me magpie, monkey,etc but i never knew it is such a beautiful name!!! =D" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Mar 11, 2009: "My real name is Margaret but I go by Maggie. When I was younger, I didn't like it but now I love it (I'm 15). I like it because there aren't very many other people with it as a name. Some of my nicknames are Maggie May, Margarita, Mag-pie, Maggie Waggie, and Maggot." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Mar 07, 2009: "my name is margaret but im call maggie and i like the name alot, i like my name cuz its not to unique but its not to popular." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 27, 2009: "My name is Maggie and I was named after the Rod Stewart song. A lot of people take liberties and call me Margaret, thinking they will sound smarter I suppose, but it's just Maggie. A few choice friends call me Marge as an inside joke (it started that if I were catholic I'd be Sister Maggie Margaret). I've only met one other Maggie, and it's lovely to know that when your name is said someone is calling for you, not the 3 other Jessicas in the room." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 23, 2009: "My name is Maggie. Not Margaret. I love my name. It's so awesome!!! I think it's very unique. I have never met a person with the same name, just Maggie, but ive met a little girl in the doctors office who was called Maggie, but her real name was Margaret. I also have a friend who's dogs name is Maggie. I sometimes get annoyed because people ask me if Maggie is my real name or just short for something. It's also good name for nicknames, even really weird ones. I am called Maggie, Mags, Magget, Magmandoo, Magnolia, Magetha, Monkey, Mag-pie, and occasionally Margaret on accident. I always have to correct people on my name. I consider myself very unique and all my friends do too. My parents decided Maggie out of Hayley, Samantha, and Maggie and they picked the right one for me!!!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 05, 2009: "my name is maggie NOT MARGARET my mums name is maragret,i luv the name maggie,its just me,its who i am,my brothers call me saggie but i dont care lol and gues what,my last name is smith, maggie smith,and no im not the actress,i also hate it when people spell it maggi,maggy no affence,i luv all the ways you can spell maggie,im l1,but i still love it" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 18, 2009: "My real name is Margaret, but that just never fit.. neither did all the other nicknames that went with it like Peggy, Meg, Meggy, Marge, Megan, etc... the only one that really suited me was Maggie.I love my name. Being a Maggie is great besides the fact that it rhymes with only gross words and every other person's dog's name is maggie. It's like every time i introduce myself to someone they say "oh my dog's name is maggie!" But besides that, there is only one other maggie i know, and i think it's just an overall cute, unique, playful name." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 17, 2009: "I was born Margaret, but go by Maggie daily. For the most part I enjoy going by Maggie, but I wish that it sounded as classic and elegant as Margaret did. I appreciate the fact that my parents named me Margaret, but call me Maggie, because that leaves me the option to go by Margaret later in life. When I think of myself fitting my name, Maggie reminds me of a young, outgoing, and athletic girl. My parents were influenced by St. Margaret, Queen of Scots, Margaret Thatcher, and my aunt. Good luck with your decision, I am sure you will make the right one!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 03, 2009: "my name is Margaret, i go by maggie. I love my name maggie. Margaret, however, not so much. I'm fourteen and I have an old ladys name. If your name is margaret or like your and older lady please do not take what i am saying offensively." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 30, 2008: "i like the name and when my best friend picks it as her english name, i like it more." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 27, 2008: "My name is MAGGY, not Maggie. I think it just looks wrong spelt with an 'ie' unless you write it in cursive.
I'm extreamly happy with my name, and I've never met someone in the flesh that spells it the same way as I do." (Report as inappropriate)
