Re: Margery
in reply to a message by Ismene
I prefer Marjorie because it looks less like the bread spread. Marjorie is also the version that occurs in my family; in fact, I don't think I've ever met a Margery.
A friend's mother was Marjory! Which I assumed was a compromise between the two more usual versions ... but she got quite huffy and said that it was the Original English Spelling! Still don't believe her ... nice woman, though.
