HelpRe: Margaret and Rose...
in reply to a message by Emily
Rose is my mn but I absolutely LOVE it as a fn so much so that I would have used it had it worked better with our surname which also has one syllable.
Margaret was the name of my mom. She went by Margie. She passed away last year and since then, I have wondered whether I should have included her name in the name of one of my three dds. I had thought about it before but just couldn't bring myself to do it. While I don't love Margaret, I adore Meg and Meggie. They're my favorite nns for Margaret. Re: Maggie, I want to like it but all I think about is maggot. I've also known Maggies who were teased.
Bottom line: I think Rose and Meg/Meggie would be somewhat distinctive and wonderfully old fashioned.
