My husband’s mother’s name is [name]Margarita[/name]. We would like to name our second daughter after her, but would rather use a derivative. Her older sister’s name is [name]Sophia[/name]. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
[name]Memphis[/name] Mama
[name]Margaret[/name]
[name]Margot[/name]
[name]Pearl[/name] (meaning of [name]Margarita[/name])
[name]Maisie[/name]
[name]Marguerite[/name]/[name]Daisy[/name] (French flower name)
[name]Greta[/name]/[name]Gretchen[/name]
[name]Margery[/name]/[name]Marjorie[/name]
[name]Maggie[/name]
[name]Rita[/name]
[name]Mae[/name]/[name]May[/name]

[name]Margaretha[/name]

I think [name]Sophia[/name] and [name]Margot[/name] would be very refreshing. I also really like “just” [name]Margaret[/name] - and it leaves you endless cool nickname choices.
I like [name]Sophia[/name] and [name]Margaret[/name] or [name]Sophia[/name] and [name]Margot[/name] best too.
[name]One[/name] no one mentions is Griet pronounced like [name]Greet[/name]. It is a dutch form. 
I think its pretty as opposed to [name]Gretchen[/name] or [name]Greer[/name].
I think sisters [name]Pearl[/name] and [name]Sophia[/name] would be adorable.
This is my stepmother’s name. We call her Makita.
[name]Margot[/name] and [name]Marguerite[/name] are beautiful choices. There is also [name]Magali[/name] (pronounced ma-ga-[name]LEE[/name]), the version of [name]Margarita[/name]/[name]Marguerite[/name] in Provençal.
