Daisy.
Once again, I'm surprised by my taste. I never thought I'd like Daisy, until I read about Poppy Montgomery's siblings. Then I decided I love it. It's just so cute and spunky to me.
WDYT?

I love it too, so cute, but in my opinion it will also age well.
I like Daisy quite a bit and think it has spunk as well. I wouldn't use it, but I like to see it.
Weird, I was thinking about it the other day too. Like you, it's a name I thought I'd never like, but it's been growing on me as a nickname for Margaret / Margarethe.
But my first reaction still is, and probably always will be, Daisy Duck. =P

I adore Daisy but only as a nick for something else like Marguerite or Margaret. My mother was named Margaret and I think Marguerite (nn Daisy) would be a nice way to honor her. I also had a ggm named Daisy (with Daisy as the full name). I picture someone named Daisy as bright with a sunny disposition (just like the flower). I also realize that some may consider Daisy to be a rather loopy name. That's why I'd give her a formal name to fall back on.
I like Daisy as a nickname.
There haven't been any other royal women named Margrethe, at least not by their first first name, the one we know our queen's by, in Danish royalty since queen Margrete I, all the way back in 1412.
Margrethe II, is the current queen of Denmark, and her grandmother was Alexandrine, married to our former king Christian X.

Then she was our late queen Ingrid's mother and Ingrid was a former princess of Sweden. I'll concede to that, but that dosen't make her a member of the Danish royal house, only the Swedish royal house. I meant a full member of the Danish royal house, which only Ingrid became after marrying into it. Sure she was also Swedish, Ingrid I mean, but she did go to live in Denmark.
I've never heard about the maternal grandmother, well I might have a some point, watching a documentary about the royal house in Denmark, and about their connection/s to the royal house of Sweden, but since the above reasons it has hardly ever been mentioned. Or it just hasn't stuck to the storage box for royal information in my brain, in where I have the memory of hearing it. It may be laying on the bottom of another box in there, where I have to dig a bit deeper to find it.

I never said she was a member of the Danish royal house (she wasn't). She was born a member of the British royal family and married a Prince of Sweden. I was just saying she was Margrethe II's grandmother and was also called Daisy. In fact, Margrethe was probably named after her.
You may not have heard much of her because she died young in 1920 when Ingrid was only 10 years old. Ingrid's father married again to Lady Louise Mountbatten who eventually became Queen of Sweden.

You already know what I'm going to say..... I have a very old male cat named Daisy. I'm really not sure how I would feel about the name if I didn't have him but it sounds like the kind of thing I'd like as a MN.
It's cute, but not that great. I see it is first a pet's name, like a dog or cat, maybe a milk cow. Then I see it as a hillbilly name, like Daisy Duke.
I am starting to really love Daisy too. I know that Marguerite nn Daisy is a definite contender for my new sibling if she is a girl. Dad and Allie both love Marguerite (Dad loves it as a tribute to his grandmother Margaret) and Allie is set on using Daisy as a nn. I think it is a really spunky name and I think it ages well. I think I do prefer it as a nn though.
I don't like it at all.
