I personally think of someone stubborn, intelligent and a little bit mischievous but would like to hear your thoughts?

Capable, a little haughty but with a twinkle in her eye.

Bunnybigears · 30/08/2018 20:33

I imagine her to be almost exactly like Margot from The Good Life

ThomasRichard · 30/08/2018 20:34

Curly blonde hair, a bit of a dreamer.

Sunflower321 · 30/08/2018 20:34

A French old lady.

BellMcEnd · 30/08/2018 20:34

Intelligent and interesting but rather uptight. I am possible channelling TGL though.

mimibunz · 30/08/2018 20:35

I think of Todd and Margot from National Lampoon’s Vacation. So, pretty, preppy and haughty. I still love the name, though!

JillCrewesmum · 30/08/2018 20:35

I know two French bulldogs and a labrador called Margot, so it makes me think of a waggy tail and a loud bark.

PinPon · 30/08/2018 20:36

I love the name. Makes me think of someone chic, intelligent and who takes no nonsense.

villainousbroodmare · 30/08/2018 20:36

A ballet dancer after Margot Fonteyn.

OutPinked · 30/08/2018 20:39

Pretty and intelligent, strong willed.

bombcyclone · 30/08/2018 20:43

Elegant but not fussy. Intelligent. Witty. Beautiful. Sporty. A girl's girl.

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 30/08/2018 20:49

Haughty and quite posh just like Margot from TGL who is also graceful like Margot Fonteyn, it’s a lovely name.

NonJeNeRegretteRien · 30/08/2018 20:55

Clever, sophisticated and interesting

needyourlovingtouch · 30/08/2018 21:00

Dark brown bob. Beautiful but in a quirky way

HirplesWithHaggis · 30/08/2018 21:01

A friend from my (long ago) school days. Smart, hardworking, shy.

Lucy1103 · 30/08/2018 21:02

Looks like I should watch The Good Life. But I’m loving these associations- not sure why I’d love a strong-willed, stubborn girl as we’ll only butt heads Hmm

I think of despicable me.

HirplesWithHaggis · 30/08/2018 21:03

Or, with a different spelling, the indomitable, magnificent and sadly late Margo MacDonald. Greatly missed.

weebarra · 30/08/2018 21:03

Capable and sensible but with a very sensitive side. It's a lovely name.

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 30/08/2018 21:04

Vair posh girl I used to work with.
Practically perfect in every way-which has to be a good thing!!!

SilkeOvesen · 30/08/2018 21:05

Margot Frank - beautiful, smart, thoughtful, mature.

myusernameisnotmyusername · 30/08/2018 21:05

Someone in my NCT group had a Margot. It's a lovely name and really suits her.

MorrisDancingViv · 30/08/2018 21:05

A 65 year old librarian who's a bit posh and looks down on you if you don't recognise when she quotes lines from 'classics'

TulipsInAJug · 30/08/2018 21:06

Anne Frank's sister Margot. Very straight-laced, quiet and studious.

UnderHerEye · 30/08/2018 21:08

It makes me imagine a girl who is a graceful ballet type, maybe a bit French and sophisticated!
