The middle name will be Dawn after my Nan
Choices are
Maggie (which I love so does partner and eldest daughter)
Alice
Emmy
Leni
Thanks I'm worried about comments if I have Maggie!!

[marmitecheesetoast]

I think Maggie is lovely and a bit different! My first thought was of Maggie May rather than Thatcher! If you love it go for it OP!

[TheWoollybacksWife]

I like Maggie. I know a little girl called Maggie and the only thing I thought when her mum told me her name was "That's nice - she's called after her Granny" (Margaret) I was a teenager during Mrs T's reign of terror and I still didn't think of her first.

Alice is also lovely.

[Redpramlady]

Maggie! Go for the name you love

[harderandharder2breathe]

I prefer Alice, I think it goes well with your other DC names

[pieceofpurplesky]

Maggie Dawn (then you have a J,K,L and and M!)

[weaselscanfly]

Love, love, love Maggie. 💞 Not keen on any of the others at all. Maggie Dawn is just lovely.

I love Maggie!

[QODRestYeMerryGentlemen]

Maggy. The y ending ties it in with Lucy and Katy

[Mrsknackered]

Maggie Dawn. Great name.

[RuthB4]

I know an 8 year old Maggie - just Maggie, not Margaret. I think it's lovely!

[ZuzuMyLittleGingersnap]

Maggie Gyllenhaal was the association for me: she's renowned for being extremely cool and talented.

Leah Wood, muso daughter of Rolling Stones Ronnie, named her small DD Maggie.

Both these counterbalance any Thatcher nonsense
(And how dare anyone question the name of Dame Maggie of Downton? Scandalous).

Seriously, though, I really like it.
Know a 3yr old one.

[OhTheRoses]

I though Margaret Thatcher was awesome. She was also known as Margaret in r/l , it was the press who nicknamed her Maggie.

Maggie is a diminutive of Margaret not a name in it's own right. Would be Alice or Emily for me. My preference is Alice

[Ojoj1974]

Maggie is GORGEOUS!!

[MikeUniformMike]

Maggy will just cause problems and sounds like what people call their fridge magnet. It's Maggie. I would use Margaret or Margarita as a full name though.

[OhTheRoses]

I'm not sure of Mikes point but on a tangent. Marguerite's diminutive can be Daisy. Any help?

[ScarletSienna]

Alice is really nice. Maggie is (imo) really not and doesn't go as well with your other DC names.

Reasons I don't like Maggie:
-Thatcher
-It is a diminutive (but I wouldn't even use Margaret)
-It is harsh sounding
-I would really hate to be called it myself

[Hersetta427]

I like them all except Leni (which I hate).

Maggie is lovely - you should use it if you both love it- there is nothing for people to turn there nose up about it.

[OwlsinTowls]

I think Emmy works best with sisters Lucy and Katy.

[squoosh]

Maggie is my favourite. It's definitely a name in its own right.

Leni is my second favourite.

[ShmooBooMoo]

Alice. Can't think of Maggie without thinking of Thatcher.
