Gorgeous, a lovely name :) Goes nicely with Anna too.

I like it. But then it's my name so I would!

I like this name alot and like the nn Meg too.

My only negative thought - and perhaps this is over-thinking - it that MegAN and ANna run into each other a little.

I used to love it, but have been put off with how popular it has become.

Even in my small circle of friends / family I know 6 Megans

If the popularity doesn't bother you though, it is a lovely name

Hmmm I probably would say anna and megan e.g. on christmas cards etc so would it sound okay? Not sure about middle names...was thinking olivia or ruth?

Yes but you'd also be saying 'Megan and Anna' as well as 'Anna and Megan' when talking about them/to them in real life! I don't think it's a huge problem though... I really like the name Ruth by the way. Anna and Ruth - sounds lovely!!

Not overly keen on Megan, has become a boring name. Love Olivia and really don't like Ruth at all.

PepsiPopcorn · 02/03/2011 17:01

Megan Olivia or Megan Ruth would both be very nice :)

Lovely Smile

Megan is a name I can't warm to even though I know several sweet Megans. I can't get away from the 'egg' in the middle.

Anna and Ruth or Anna and Olivia sound gorgeous though..

happybubblebrain · 02/03/2011 19:08

I'm not keen. Olivia is a much more sophisticated and softer sounding name.

I love it - DD2 is Megan, and her 3 yr old sister calls her Meg when they are playing together. Very cute. And Meggy Boo.
We all call her Boo a lot of the time too!!
Officially she is Megan Louise.

Elizadoesdolittle · 02/03/2011 22:34

I think Megan is a lovely name. I prefer Olivia to Ruth for a middle name.
