ArchivesRe: What Language, if any specific, did my name come from?
in reply to a message by Margali
Hi Margali,
In a German context it would be a Swiss diminutive form of Marga (German short form of Margarethe / Margaretha). -li for a diminutive form is used in Switzerland and in the very south west of Germany.
