Re: Margaret, Marguerite, and Margot
I know it's the Icelandic form, but Margret always seems like a misspelling to me :/ Thanks, anyway!

Actually its Margrèt with the accent on the letterI just personally prefer the Spelling of Margret because with Margaret (the more well known spelling) you don't say the A. Margret: Mar gret.
Margaret: mar (silent A) gret
LolEither way, very nice name. A bit old and vintage for some peoples taste but I defiently can see it making a com back. Even for mostly being a middle name

If we're being so specific, it's Margrét ;) I definitely think some people say the "silent" A, though I vary on the matter personally.
