Re: Margaret
Margaret, nn Maisie makes perfect sense to me. It could be derived from Daisy (in French a daisy is "marguerite") or it could have stemmed from the nn Mae. These are just my guesses, but I've seen it listed as a traditional nn for Margaret. Margaret Olivia is beautiful. Margaret Ophelia is gutsy.

I'm sorry, but what do you mean by "gutsy"? I am not familiar with this word.

www.dictionary.com :-)Gutsy:
#1 Marked by courage or daring; plucky.
#2 Robust and uninhibited; lusty: “the gutsy... intensity of her musical involvement” (Judith Crist).Gutsy = full of guts

www.dictionary.com? Awesome! Ha! I think I have heard of that, but thanks for reminding me! So I am taking this to mean that it would be unwise to make Margaret Ophelia a combo?

No, not at allLook at the connontations of her message and her usage of gutsy. Gutsy can be both bad and good. She enjoyed it. :-)
