Thoughts on Margot

Lily_Grace · January 12, 2021, 6:54pm

I’ve been liking the name Margot lately! I need a few things from you guys 1. Middle name ideas for Margot 2. What are you opinions/associations with Margot BE HONEST 3. Preferred Spelling, what spelling do you like best? What is the most natural?

Middles:
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Evelina[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Katherine[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Annabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]

I like [name_f]Margot[/name_f], but I prefer [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]. [name_f]Margot[/name_f] is kinda what I’d describe as a modern classic; it gives me the same vibes as [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]

[name_f]Margot[/name_f] is definitely my favorite spelling. [name_f]Margo[/name_f] looks incomplete and [name_f]Margaux[/name_f] looks like way too much.

I have [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Hester[/name_f] on my list! I love [name_f]Margot[/name_f], I love the sound, I think it’s so pretty and a nice balance of classical but fun.

I used to prefer the [name_f]Margo[/name_f] spelling because I was so worried about people saying “mah-gott” but the [name_f]Margot[/name_f] spelling is actually the most common in the UK and I think it’s the original spelling.

My main associations with the name are [name_f]Margot[/name_f] Fonteyn and @MargotAbeline!

ChelsAnne22 · January 12, 2021, 7:05pm

I like [name_f]Margot[/name_f] quite a bit. It was on our list when I was expecting our first daughter, actually. We just have an M last name, so we weren’t sold. The only association I have is Despicable Me. One of the girls is named [name_f]Margot[/name_f]. As for spelling, I definitely prefer [name_f]Margot[/name_f]. It’s how I instinctively want to spell it. [name_f]Margo[/name_f] is probably a bit easier, but I think [name_f]Margot[/name_f] is well known enough that there should be any problems.

As far as middle names go, without knowing your style I would suggest perhaps…
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Delaney[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Renee[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Abigail[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Louise[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Elowen[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Verity[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]

I love [name_f]Margot[/name_f]! It seems to be getting quite a bit more popular, but for good reason. It’s sweet, bright, energetic, and feels classic but with some extra flair. I prefer it to [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] personally. I’m torn between [name_f]Margot[/name_f] and [name_f]Margo[/name_f] for spelling, but [name_f]Margot[/name_f] is quite a bit more common (at least where I am) so I’d probably go with that for ease. [name_f]Margaux[/name_f] is the only spelling I really don’t care for. I’m not sure what type of middle names you like, but I’ll throw out a variety of suggestions:

Margot [name_f]Adeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Bellamy[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Celeste[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Juliana[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Laine[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Lillian[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Mirabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Winifred[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Wynne[/name_u]

abby_gail_t · January 12, 2021, 7:16pm

Margot [name_f]Jade[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Avalon[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Calypso[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Cornelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Elaine[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Ines[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Valerie[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Veronica[/name_f]

I prefer [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] over [name_f]Margot[/name_f], but [name_f]Margot[/name_f] is super cute too. [name_f]Margot[/name_f] is definitely the more modern version.
I like the [name_f]Margot[/name_f] spelling over the [name_f]Margo[/name_f] spelling or any other variations.

ethelmary · January 12, 2021, 7:56pm

I love [name_f]Margot[/name_f]! It’s elegant and chic. [name_f]Margot[/name_f] is my favourite spelling, but I like [name_f]Margaux[/name_f] too.

Margot [name_f]Faye[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Lorraine[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Winifred[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f]

dejectedpiglet · January 12, 2021, 7:58pm

Not sure!
I have wonderful associations with the name [name_f]Margot[/name_f], and it used to be one of my favorites! For some reason I’ve fallen out of love with it a little bit, but I still think it’s a beautiful name when I see it on other people.
In order of favorite to least: [name_f]Margot[/name_f], [name_f]Margo[/name_f], Margeaux

Lily_Grace · January 12, 2021, 8:01pm

I actually love [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] and was thinking that [name_f]Margot[/name_f] and [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] would be a good sibling pair.

TDFM · January 12, 2021, 9:11pm

I adore the name [name_f]Margot[/name_f]! It’s so elegant and for me gives off vintage/artistic vibes. I think of [name_m]Woody[/name_m] [name_m]Allen[/name_m]’s Manhattan (because of [name_f]Margaux[/name_f] [name_m]Hemingway[/name_m]) and The [name_u]Royal[/name_u] Tenenbaums ([name_f]Margot[/name_f] Tenenbaum). I love both spellings, perhaps leaning slightly towards [name_f]Margaux[/name_f].

Middles:

Margot [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Astrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Madge[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Paloma[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Flora[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]

[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Anouk[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Luella[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Olive[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Isobel[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Zelda[/name_f]

futuremama · January 12, 2021, 9:24pm

Margot [name_f]Ondine[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Philippa[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Nell[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Ines[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Wilder[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Julienne[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Francesca[/name_f]
While I do know of a few [name_f]Margot[/name_f]’s, I don’t really associate anyone in particular with the name. I think the name is great! Elegant, but cool & spunky
All of the spellings ([name_f]Margot[/name_f], [name_f]Margaux[/name_f], and [name_f]Margo[/name_f]) have very different vibes to me, so I like them all pretty equally and for various reasons. [name_f]Margaux[/name_f] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f] are probably my favourites, though. [name_f]Margo[/name_f] or [name_f]Margot[/name_f] is probably intuitive for most people.

skylerros · January 12, 2021, 9:36pm

Margaux seems too elaborate & overdone to me. [name_f]Margo[/name_f] is anglicized & I see it as “dumbing the name down”. [name_f]Margot[/name_f] all the way!

This is not something I would personally use & I really don’t see the appeal, but I can’t say I don’t like it for others.

Greyblue · January 12, 2021, 9:51pm

I love [name_f]Margot[/name_f]. Vintage and charming!!

Margot [name_f]Talullah[/name_f]

[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u]

Dechen · January 12, 2021, 11:27pm

I adore [name_f]Margot[/name_f]! I’m not a fan of the [name_f]Margaux[/name_f] spelling, I find it too elaborate, and I can take or leave [name_f]Margo[/name_f] which feels incomplete to me. [name_f]Margot[/name_f] to me feels like the original and most intuitive spelling. [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Robbie[/name_u] has familiarised the name in recent years, so I don’t think pronunciation is much of an issue. I think I first noticed [name_f]Margot[/name_f] because of The [name_u]Royal[/name_u] Tenenbaums, but I don’t really associate the name with anyone in particular.

Some middles I like:

Margot [name_u]Endellion[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]

[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Inez[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Astrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]

I love [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] as a combination!! Very nice!! [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] is beautiful as well!

morgantaylore · January 14, 2021, 1:53am

I have a [name_f]Margot[/name_f] and a [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]

ElizabethAntoinette · January 14, 2021, 3:18am

I like it but prefer [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] for the nickname potential and the fact it’s been more consistently popular.

VioletMoon · January 14, 2021, 9:15am

I think my preferred spelling is [name_f]Margo[/name_f], mainly because I wouldn’t want people to mispronounce it. As a previous poster mentioned, I used to associate [name_f]Margot[/name_f] with the unpleasant imagery of maggots

Overall, [name_f]Margo[/name_f] / [name_f]Margot[/name_f] has really grown on me, and I can honestly say I love it! It’s classic, zesty & elegant.

[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Ginevra[/name_f]
