I love the nicknames Maggie, Mags, & Gretta (there are probably other names that momentarily escape me); yet for a middle:

---

Margaret Johanna or Margaret Johannes

---

Margaret Prunella or Margaret Prudence

---

Margret Constanza or Margaret Constantine

---

Margaret Irene or Margaret Eileen

Very nice, but old sounding and a bit dated and pretty. I prefer Marguerite though, to Margaret. It seems more unique in a way that Margaret had became stale and reminds me of grandmas.

---

Margaret Susanne
Margaret Rosemary
Margaret Hazel
Margaret Hadriana
Margaret Clotilde
Margaret Devorah
Margaret Melisande
Margaret Theresa
Margaret Joanne
Margaret June

I love Margaret! My last name starts with Mar-, so I its not very high on my list to actually use but I just love it!

---

I love the combo Margaret Anne as something simple and elegant. Other ideas:
Margaret Lillian
Margaret Claire
Margaret Lucy
Margaret Annabel
Margaret Rose
Margaret Eloise
Margaret Jane
Margaret Frances
Margaret Opal
Margaret Fern

---

For a sibling, I would do something classic like Katherine, Anne, Jane, Rosemary, Clara, Mary or Edmund/Edward, Robert, George, Charles, William etc.

Not a fan of Margaret personally.

---

For siblings I would go with something classic, I think Martha would be a great sister name.

Meg, Mel and Freddie.

I like it. I do prefer it with a nickname -- Maggie is my favorite -- or as a middle name, because Margaret on its own can seem a little harsh.

---

I like Margaret paired with equally underused classics, so I'll say Margaret, Peter, and Louise. Certainly doesn't sound like a modern sibset to me, but I love it.

---

I've always loved Sarah Margaret as far as combos go. I don't even particularly like Sarah but these two names just work together beautifully.

---

Margaret Ada
Margaret Adela
Margaret Calla
Margaret Julia
Margaret Flora
Margaret Laurel

---

I like it with very soft middles ending in 'a.'

---

It's hard to keep it from sounding harsh, imo. Something like Margaret Eleanor or even Margaret Laura sounds so stern to my ears.

Margaret is very pretty and classic. You can always jazz it up a bit by using Maggie. I like:
Margaret Jane
Margaret Grace
Margaret Lynn
Margaret Beth

---

Siblings would be:
George Pinson
Elizabeth May
Gordon Benjamin
Melanie Jane

I had an aunt Margaret, also a cousin named Margaret (she was named for the aunt), so I like it, it's familiar to me.
Both these women were called their name, no nick-names.

---

Aunt was named Margaret Jessie;the cousin, the cousin, I don't know here middle name.

I think it’s kind of old and boring, like... my grandmas shoes.
But anyways.
Margaret Katherine May
Margaret Camilla Faith
Margaret Louisa Elle

---

And would be called Megs.

---

She would have two brothers named...
Edward Jonathan Roger “Eddy”
Thomas Anthony Brooks “Tom”

---

And two sisters named...
Elizabeth Olivia Joy “Bethy “
Susannah Jane Celeste “Suze”

Hi!

---

I LOVE the name Margaret! I like the nickname Meg. I like the combination, Margaret Christine.

I love it! I have a feeling it’s going to spike a little (just a little) because of the portrayal of Princess Margaret in the Crown. My husband now likes the name far better because of the show.

---

Plus it’s got a lot of great nicknames, from obvious ones like Marg and Greta to more non-intuitive but well-established, like Maggie, Peggy and Daisy

Margaret has such a grim, sour sound to it. It just is not a pretty name. Margarita and Marguerite are just so much prettier, and Marjorie is cute in a grandma kind of way.

Margaret was our first choice for years and years. It was only after we became pregnant that we chose not to use it. We planned on using Margaret Cecilia or Margaret Mae.

---

I'm pretty happy we didn't use it, I think Miriam and fits my daughter better and fits us better.

---

Pretty much anything goes with Margaret. I'd like Julian and Thomas for boys and Julia and Olivia for girls

It's not a favorite but it is a classic which is nice. I prefer Marguerite which I pronounce differently. I like Margaret Rose, I know it's boring but I think it's cute :)

Margaret Isabella
Margaret Sophia
Margaret Emmeline
Margaret Louisa
Margaret Victoria
Margaret Joy
Margaret Olivia
Margaret Ophelia
Margaret Rosalia
