Is it a name on its own?

As Only said. Give her the full name, then use the nickname. She then has the option later to be Peggy or Margaret, or Mags etc.

Fine with it as what you call a child, but I can't get on board with putting contractions on a birth certificate. Go Margaret.

well its Margaret but like a lot of the old fashioned names people prefer the shortened version eg. Charlie not Charles, Teddy not Edward- if you like it its fine
