Margot or Phoebe?

[BlusshhB44]

I think of both of these names as strong names, which would suit a child and an adult.

I don’t like frilly or ‘unique’ names but i’m not looking for a name in the top 30 either.

do you like either of these names?

what other names may i like?

I prefer Margot over Phoebe but both are nice! A few you might like

Ottilie (Ottie)
Amelia
Gigi
Ava
Indie
Vivienne

I like Phoebe

Margot reminds me of maggot but I still quite like it.

How about Alexandra, Elizabeth, Harriet, Georgina, Georgia, Eliza, Sophia or Sophie?

Phoebe is top 30 in UK if that bothers you and Margot is shooting up the charts.

I like both names quite equally and would be struggling to decide too! Does one sound better with your surname?

I prefer Phoebe personally. Margot is quite nice but I wonder whether it will date badly as it’s having a sudden resurgence with the Barbie movie.

Pheobe was one of my girl names along with hope and Bella

Love Phoebe

Both are nice, but there are a lot of Phoebes around DD’s age (10-ish).

What about:
Imogen
Christabel
Cecilia
Beatrice
Constance
Octavia
Helena
Isadora
Eleanor
Daphne
Lucinda
Sidonie

Margot is a really faddy name. So many of them born in the last 4 years.

I prefer Phoebe.

I like them both. Phoebe would be my preference though.

They're both quite trendy if that bothers you?

At a push id say Phoebe

Julia is a gentle, dignified name, and of a similar vibe to Margot.

To me Margot is elegant and way more pleasant to say than Phoebe.

Can't swing a cat for hitting a Phoebe at the moment. I'm not really keen on it as a name at all. So Margot would be my preference.

I have three children, primary school and nursery age and don’t know a single one, at school, nursery or at clubs! Margot I do think is having a bit of a moment, shame we don’t have the 2022 stats but I imagine it’s risen in the charts. I still think both are good names though

Phoebe. Margot looks like Maggot.

Most people I know who've had a daughter recently seems to have had a Margot. And nearly everyone who's had a son has had an Ezra.

Team Phoebe!
