Just wondering what anybody thinks of Peggy for a baby girl? DH wants to name our DD3 after his Grandma. Her real name was Margaret which I don't like at all but everyone knew her as Peggy. I know that it is a popular name I France but I've never actually come across a child named Peggy. Honest opinions please :)

First thing I thought of was hi de hi, ho de ho!

I love it. And that's why I called my kitten Peg ;-)

But seriously, I think it's a lovely name. Margaret on birth certificate though.

I would always have the full name on the birth cert. Even if you call her Peggy.
Margaret is a nice name. The little ones I know are shortened to Maggie or Meg.

I love it, but I do think it is a nickname for Margaret, so I am not sure I would go for Peggy as the full name. I adore Margaret!!!

Love it, but then I'm a 'Mad Men' obsessive! Grin

Marvellous name Wink.

Seriously though, I love it.
