Marguerite

It's beautiful, very unique and a lovely name. ❤❤.

I think Marguerite is a nice French alternative to Margaret.
It sounds elegant in my humble opinion.

This is my dear daughter's middle name, Isabelle Marguerite. My husband and I picked this name because we loved the meaning behind it. Gorgeous name!

Marguerite is a nice name along with other variations of the name for Margaret.

Ugly sound. Margarita is much lighter and less mean-sounding.

Simply exquisite! I pronounce Marguerite as MAR-GU-REET. :)

Very exquisite!

I far prefer this to Margaret or Marjorie.

It's lovely. Such a poetic sounding name. But I don't like the nickname Marge. Rita sounds nice.

My grandmother was named Marguerite and had a nickname of Muggs. We decided to name our daughter after her in 2013 since it was classic, pretty, affiliated with daisies & uncommon. We could not decide on a nickname since my husband wanted Margie (with a hard "g") and I didn't want our daughter to have to say that constantly! She called herself Rite (pronounced "reet") before she could fully pronounce her name - what a great nickname!

Love the sweet sound of Marguerite. I definitely prefer this over Margaret.

Very unique and uncommon but can be difficult to spell. Reminds me of a margarita! I know two people whose middle names are Marguerite, but that's it.

I like the name, but it always reminds me of a pizza. Here in Holland we have a pizza that's called "Marguerite" but maybe the spelling is different from that pizza.

But I also know this name form the novels of Lyndsey Sands. There's aunt Marguerite Argeneau, a vampire, and the stories are about her and her family/friends/vampire companions & about true life.

It's a beautiful name that reminds me not only of the lovely big "Marguerite daisy" with its summery feel but of medieval French princesses. Margot makes a good nickname, anything but Marge or Maggie.
I just read this rhyme:
In search from A to Z they passed,
And "Marguerita" chose at last;
But thought it sound far more sweet
To call the baby "Marguerite."
When grandma saw the little pet,
She called her "darling Margaret."
Next uncle Jack and cousin Aggie
Sent cup and spoon to "little Maggie."
And grandpapa the right must beg
To call the lassie "bonnie Meg."
From "Marguerita" down to "Meg,"
And now she's simply "little Peg."

This was my great-grandmother's name. I think it is very pretty. Not too over-the-top, not too plain. Sweet and just right.

I work with a woman named Marguerite Duke, and Marguerite in French means "daisy", so yea she is "Daisy Duke", lol, anyway nicknames would be Marge, Margie, even heard Margo... so yea.

A lovely alternative to Daisy, which is growing rather common as a first name again.

I love my name, even though I don't really think it fits me -- it's too flowery. I just want to let everyone know that there are lots of annoying nicknames that can come from Marguerite.
Here are a few others have actually called me: Meg, Meggie, Margarita (like the drink), Margaret, and Marge (from the Simpsons)!

I think that Marguerite is a beautiful name, and I also think that Marguerite is much more beautiful than Margaret.

My great-aunt's name was Marguerite. She was such a spunky old lady that I came to love her name.
