They will be far too young for any Thatcher or Simpsons digs from peers. I love the name!

RedOnHerHedd · 24/02/2016 00:09

I don't like it, sorry.

I like it. I think a Maggie could have a sister called Rosie as the names make me think of the same sort of person. I really like Meg too and Margaret would give her the choice of both when she's older.

I find Maggie quite harsh sounding. It also doesn't travel well, sounds like Maggi in German (a well known food), but that may not bother you.

I do like Margaret but prefer Margherita!

MrsMarigold · 24/02/2016 11:14

Love it.

FennellaFitzWelly · 24/02/2016 11:23

Love it. Don't like Margaret though.

My name doesn't have 'options' and I'm none the worse for it!

Very cool and lovely and all Maggies are extremely attractive.

Gowgirl · 24/02/2016 11:41

Love it! But it ended up as a second name due to overwhelming hatred from Dh!

joyfulworld · 24/02/2016 11:58

Hate it. I'm sorry.

Gummibearchen · 24/02/2016 14:32

Looks like Maggi is also sold in the UK...: www.maggi.co.uk/

squoosh · 25/02/2016 10:07

Er, I'm pretty sure the name is well established enough in the UK not to be confused with a German food brand!

Thurlow · 25/02/2016 11:10

I don't know Maggi the food. I do know the very old name Maggie though Hmm

Beautiful name.

Love it!

Tactfulcactus · 26/02/2016 18:48

Hate it

buddy79 · 27/02/2016 21:25

Love it. Love all of them, Margot, Maretta, Marguerite. Thatcher didn't occur to me! And it means "Pearl"!!
