Margot is lovely!

Parcelpass · 24/08/2026 14:01

Naomi from that list.

BaronessBomburst · 24/08/2026 14:01

Naomi is beautiful

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 24/08/2026 14:03

Naomi stands out as more unusual I’ve only ever known two

AustenitesUnite · 24/08/2026 14:13

I like all 4 names but my order of preference would be

1 ~ Naomi
2 ~ Georgia
3 ~ Zara
4 ~ Margot

Oh I love them all!

Naomi and Georgia are my favourites but I'd worry everyone would call Georgia George, which takes it from being rather lovely to rather masculine which I would hate. There's a lovely song called Georgia on My Mind (though that is mostly considered to be about the state in the US, but can be taken to be about a person).

Zara probably my least favourite as I do associate it with ladies who would be about 40 now, it was popular where I lived, that and Zoe.

Margot is lovely, I think it might have had a bit of a moment about 10-15 years ago, but is still gorgeous.

I don’t get the love for Margot, it’s also the most popular of the 4. There are lots of them.

I like all the others. I really like Georgia.

LoudPlumDog · 24/08/2026 14:30

Zara or Naomi 💛

Berlinlover · 24/08/2026 14:33

Georgia

Firsttimebabymummy · 24/08/2026 14:34

Naomi!

roshi42 · 24/08/2026 15:09

All nice enough… there’s a lot of Margots around right now. I like Georgia best.

ShetlandishMum · 24/08/2026 15:10

Naomi.

Hellorainyday · 24/08/2026 15:18

All are nice. Margot getting very popular if that affects your decision.

Dreamerinme · 24/08/2026 15:21

In order:

Naomi
Zara
Georgia
Margot (I can’t get past The Good Life with this name)

Lampzade · 24/08/2026 15:25

I love Naomi and Margot .
The only issue is that these names are often mispronounced
Not a fan of the name Zara but Georgia is ok

IsThePopeCatholic · 24/08/2026 16:04

Naomi or Georgia.

iloveanearlynight · 24/08/2026 16:06

Margot is hideous. It is so frumpy and looks like Maggot, so no. The others are nice but Zara is the best!

DramaAlpaca · 24/08/2026 16:15

Love Zara and Naomi.

Strongly dislike the other two.

Calliopespa · 24/08/2026 16:16

Georgia.

Is Naomi really very pretty? It has a nice meaning but to me sounds like a good name for a horse: Neigh-omi.

lanesra01 · 24/08/2026 16:36

We have a Georgia and she is called Gia for short

I don't mind Georgie either - which is odd as I really don't like the name George at all. It's too heavy.

But Georgia is pretty, and I like Georgiana even more, though DH vetoed it from our lists as some pronunciations come perilously close to Georgianal.

LilyLemonade · 24/08/2026 16:43

All lovely. I like Naomi best.

Maggot!!! This is all i see when i see Margot. Was beginning to think i was alone in my confusion at its popularity

Redredrumdedrum · 24/08/2026 17:02

lanesra01 · 24/08/2026 16:36

I really like that nickname!

Do you ever get people assuming you've named her after the US state? Like someone named eg Dakota. I know the name is older than the US state & has a different root but I worry people would think we've imported a US name

It's such an ugly, harsh sound too! That hard 'g'.
