I just saw a name come across the nameberry ticker that I thought might work for you…[name]Pegeen[/name]. Apparently its an Irish diminutive for the Irish equivalent of [name]Margaret[/name] and is in the same family with [name]Colleen[/name], [name]Kathleen[/name] and [name]Maureen[/name].
Good luck with your search!

What about [name]Marlowe[/name] or [name]Marley[/name] as a first name and [name]June[/name] as a mn?
Other [name]Jean[/name]-ish options: [name]Jeanine[/name], [name]Jennifer[/name], [name]Genevieve[/name], [name]Joan[/name], [name]Johanna[/name].
[name]Peggy[/name]-ish: Paige
[name]Margaret[/name]-ish options: [name]Margot[/name] (pronounced Marg-oh), [name]Marjorie[/name](both sound a lot like [name]Margaret[/name] I know but still throwing it out there) [name]Marcie[/name], (again) [name]Marlowe[/name]/[name]Marley[/name], [name]Marilyn[/name], [name]Mary[/name], [name]Meredith[/name].
[name]Hope[/name] this helped, at least a little! Good luck!

No one has suggested [name]Posey[/name] or [name]Pippa[/name] ([name]Philippa[/name] maybe?) yet I don’t think, so I thought I’d throw those out there. I think [name]Marigold[/name] [name]Jean[/name] is so cute (as long as your husband is okay with the mar- thing?). I also really like [name]Magnolia[/name]! [name]Magnolia[/name] [name]Jean[/name] maybe?
If you’re looking for a more modern way to honour [name]Jean[/name], what about [name]Juno[/name]? Or [name]Juniper[/name]? [name]Geneva[/name]/[name]Jeneva[/name] could work too.
