It's become very popular very quickly. I know of 4 baby Margots born in the last couple of years. It's nice enough just maybe a bit too faddy.

Love Margot

KingofQueens · 28/08/2021 22:04

Beautiful name.

I know a Margaux, to be honest I prefer that spelling . It's a lovely name

freelions · 28/08/2021 22:06

I agree that it's a bit faddy and therefore may date badly

I don't dislike it as such but there are plenty of other much nicer names imho

daisypond · 28/08/2021 22:07

I like it.

VanishingAct · 28/08/2021 22:07

Margaux spelling would be a bit naff. The middle class version of calling your daughter Chardonnay.

Givemethatknife · 28/08/2021 22:09

I like it, but it has got popular v fast

Ignore the suggestions to spell it Margaux, that is beyond naff

Love it

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 29/08/2021 01:07

It very trendy now, and doesn't have a especially nice sound imo, sorry. I actually prefer traditional if dated Margaret - at least then she has a choice of nn's (Maggie, Mae, Greta, Meg, Daisy, Margot...).

ClumpingBambooIsALie · 29/08/2021 01:11

Pronounced like Fargo? Or like Marmot?

DramaAlpaca · 29/08/2021 01:30

I dislike it intensely, to me it's a very ugly name.

Lemonlemon88 · 29/08/2021 01:30

It's my daughter's middle name, it's lovely.

Balonzette · 29/08/2021 01:41

Love it

Boredmotherofone · 29/08/2021 01:52

Omg that's horrific! Sounds like a geography teacher with a floral skirt and a Honda Jazz

Soulstirring · 29/08/2021 02:38

It’s not a name I have ever liked. I’m genuinely shocked it’s become so popular but each to their own!

ISaidDontLickTheBin · 29/08/2021 02:53

I don't mind it but agree with pp its waaay popular right now

garlictwist · 29/08/2021 04:05

Sorry I think it awful. A real middle aged name

mydailymailhell · 29/08/2021 04:11

Love this name but it has become extremely popular - I know about five babies / toddlers with this name, including a couple with the spelling Margaux which is incomprehensibly naff

Kanaloa · 29/08/2021 04:44

I like it. I would spell it like Margot, not Margaux, but I think it’s a nice solid name.

manhattenrain · 29/08/2021 05:24

I prefer Margo without the T. Either way it's a nice name.Smile

OnceUponAMidnightBeery · 29/08/2021 05:36

Sorry OP, it sounds like a car to me... ‘the new Toyota Margot’. I’m surprised it’s so popular tbh 🤷🏻‍♀️

EishetChayil · 29/08/2021 05:41

Awful. Like maggot.
