Re: Margaret
in reply to a message by *Brogan*
Margaret nn Maisie - brilliant! I've known one Margaret nn Maisie and one 'just' Maisy.
Maisie I always thought came from the scottish Marsaili, the Scottish version of Marjorie / Margery, and hence Margaret. In any case, it is very strongly Scottish to my ears- both Maisies I know are Scottish (or her parents are).

Do you think it would be okay for someone NOT Scottish at all to use? In your own personal opinion? I'm 100% Irish :)
Hehe, close enough.
I'm English and Dutch, my DH is English and Metis- so I unfortunately don't think we could use some of the beautiful Scots and Irish names, but that wouldn't stop most- and I don't necessarily think it should.
In sum, it's great :-P
