HelpRe: Margaret - usable in the UK?
in reply to a message by Buneary
Sort of. I think Margaret could swing back into fashion as a faux-trendy name they're all obsessed with in the upper classes; I'm thinking Penelope and Matilda here.
But I also think there is a strong enough amount of people left who are called Margaret to stop this from happening. Edith works because nobody has a Grandma Edith anymore, but plenty of people have Nanna Margaret.
My first association isn't Margaret Thatcher (and I am a Brit, though too young to remember her regime), and if I met a young Margaret in my class I wouldn't assume she's named after the PM.
My constantly changing PNL:

Top rated = James / Henry and Alexander :)
Bottom rated = Kacey and Kim :(
