Clunky. Sorry.

Comedycook · 02/03/2022 19:57

Clunky is the word

heldinadream · 02/03/2022 20:00

Lovely! Scottish.

Prepaway · 02/03/2022 20:02

Reminds me of Katie Morag

LeftieLucy · 02/03/2022 20:02

Katie Morag here too.

BinBandit · 02/03/2022 20:15

It's probably due a revival but isn't a favourite for me, I don't mind it though and wouldn't bat an eyelid at a baby Morag. The only one I know in rl is in the Borders and it's pronounced Mo-rig with a short "o". I'd normally pronounce it Mow (to rhyme with Hoe) -rag.

I really like Lorna though :)

It reminded me of Katie Morag too Grin I mean it's a personal choice, I personally wouldn't want to be called Morag

toastofthetown · 02/03/2022 20:43

Morag is totally charmless name for me.

AdaColeman · 02/03/2022 20:50

OK if you are Scottish. It sounds quite harsh, not lyrical or sweet and flowery.

RuthW · 02/03/2022 21:36

Ugly

Derrymum123 · 02/03/2022 21:44

Lovely name. Not met many people named Morag. Love it.

McScreamysGhostPants · 02/03/2022 21:48

Makes me think of toerag and ankletag.

tearinghairout · 02/03/2022 21:50

Not keen.

Lurking9to5 · 02/03/2022 21:50

I like it!

SummaLuvin · 02/03/2022 21:53

Rather horrid

FlamingoDust · 03/03/2022 20:25

Sounds harsh to my ears

HoldingTheDoor · 03/03/2022 20:27

It's hideous.

Meecrowavay · 03/03/2022 20:31

It's possibly due a revival. I know one young Morag and she shortens it to Mo. Is it a Scottish name you want? Isla is a lovely alternative, albeit very popular. Or there's Iona or Mairi.

Luredbyapomegranate · 03/03/2022 21:29

Too close to hag. (Are you serious?!)

Mirren is lovely, Morven is OK.

DogsAndGin · 03/03/2022 21:35

Hideous
