Need opinions on girl names
| Wed, 03-21-2007 - 10:52pm |
I am expecting my third baby and I already have two girls. We have picked a boys name already but cannot decide on a girls name. I have thought of several names but there are two I would like to get more opinions on. I am very fond of the names Maggie and Maisie. I would really like to know what all of you think.

To be honest, I think you like one name -- Margaret. Maggie and Maisie are both nns for it, and while I wouldn't use either as a given name, I absolutely love them as pet forms. Heck, you wouldn't even have to choose one or the other, since they're both nns for the same name. ;)
I only say this assuming you hadn't realized it, but if you already knew that but didn't like Margaret itself, I'm sure everyone would be happy to suggest other more formal names you could use with one of these as a nn. Magdalene, Madeline or Morrigan could be called Maggie, for example. Mairead, Marsaili, Megan, Mary, Tamsin/Thomasina or even Amalie could use the nn Maisie.
Just some ideas ... I'm sure there are plenty more.

I agree with the pp about the name Margaret - it would be a great name. My favorite of the two is Maisie - but Maggie is great too.
Good luck,
Brooke
I like them both as nicknames but not a given name.
I love both Maggie and Maisie but ONLY as nn's. They are not full names. The perfect compromise seems to be to name the baby Margaret and call her either Maggie or Maisie (or both). Margaret has TONS of nn's... besides Maggie and Maisie, Greta and Meg are favourites of mine.
