This name is a real toss up for me...

I LOVE classic names (Elizabeth, Alexander, etc.) but do find them a bit common so I always look for more interesting nicknames (ie. Libby for Elizabeth, Anders for Alexander). For Margaret I LOVE both Maggie and Greta and also, for me, I love Margaret Mitchell, author of Gone With the Wind, so the name really would be perfect for me. But still, Margaret seems a bit frumpy to me. Other names with the same vibe that used to see frumpy as well (Esther, Ruth, Rose, Maura, etc.) have a new sparkle, but I still can't find that in Margaret and I wish I could!

I do love its class and the nickname possibilities though.

I think we are going with Margaret this time around, nn Maggie. It was my grandmother's name. Most important thing is that you love it!
