Margarita or Caroline?

We can't decide between:

Caroline Margarita - we would like the nickname Callie but would be fine with Carrie

Margarita Caroline - nickname Maggie

We're sure on these two names, as they're in honour of relatives called Carol and Margaret - we just can't decide which to make the first name and which the middle name.

Margarita is lovely. Theres a choice of nick names for it

AnyaMoondial · 04/08/2018 08:30

Caroline. Love it.

Madeline18 · 04/08/2018 08:37

Love Caroline. We used Margot to honour Margaret and Margery in our family :)

WillowRose79 · 04/08/2018 08:43

Callie is really cute !

AtticaRose · 04/08/2018 09:00

Caroline. Lovely.

I love Margarita, and it feels a bit more original than Caroline, with lots of nickname options.

Having said that, the nickname Callie is very sweet. Great choices! And having a family connection is such a lovely thing.

Caroline is the much nicer name imo, very classic, and has lovely NN options. I despise Maggie and margarita just reminds me of pizza... sorry Blush

MrsSnootyPants2018 · 04/08/2018 09:06

Caroline is lovely. But I don't understand why you have a pizza as a middle name?

kenandbarbie · 04/08/2018 09:07

I prefer Margarita but I like Marguerite even more.

Rainbowtrees · 04/08/2018 09:08

Caroline is by far the nicest name.

kenandbarbie · 04/08/2018 09:09

Isn't Peggy shirt for Margaret / Marguerite / Margarita as well? That's really cute. And it means Daisy. Love it!

Maireadd · 04/08/2018 09:28

I prefer Margarita but unfortunately it makes me think of the drink/pizza.

Marguerite is a lovely suggestion.

Scabetty · 04/08/2018 09:30

Prefer Caroline.

LarkDescending · 04/08/2018 09:31

MikeUniformMike · 04/08/2018 10:14

Caroline Margarita is lovely. Cally, Carly or Carrie as a nn.

HeyDolly · 04/08/2018 13:15

I much prefer Marguerite. As others have said Margarita is a pizza/cocktail.

DramaAlpaca · 04/08/2018 13:16

Caroline is much nicer.

MiniAlphaBravo · 04/08/2018 13:16

Margarita sounds like a cocktail so I definitely wouldn’t use it. Caroline is very nice.

MargotMoon · 04/08/2018 13:17

Caroline! 💖

schnubbins · 04/08/2018 14:12

It doesn't honour anyone to call your child by a name which isn't theirs.
