Comments for the name Margot

Margot was the name of Anne Frank's sister.

My name is Margaret and my nickname was always Margot as a child. Margot sounds more powerful and substantial than Maggie and Peggy, which I disliked because they sounded so frivolous.

This name was held by Prima Ballerina Assoluta of the Royal Ballet, Margot Fonteyn.

Also used in Sweden (not as common today) where the 't' is pronounced, MAR-gott.

I don't like this name because it looks too much like maggot. Nice name though.

Margot Helen Tenenbaum (Gwyneth Paltrow) from the movie The Royal Tenenbaums.

Also pronounced MAR-go in English, with the stress on the second syllable.

I really like his name - maybe because it's mine. However, most people when reading my name out loud mispronounce it as mar-GOTT.

This is my name and I used to HATE it. Substitute teachers would always mispronounce it MAR-gott, and for some reason through elementary and middle school my classmates found that extremely hilarious. Now I don't get teased as much, once people get used to my name, and I think it is unique and powerful, and I love it.

In Germany Margot is pronounced similar to the Swedish; MAR-gawt.

I love this name, reminds me of a very good looking woman.

It looks too much like 'maggot'. ;/

Snobby lady in the British TV series "The Good Life" played by Penelope Keith.

The name of Grace Kelly's character in "Dial M for Murder."

No way, no one has mentioned Margot Kidder who played Lois Lane opposite Christopher Reeves' Superman! :-o

Bette Davis played the character Margot Channing in "All About Eve".

The name Margot was given to 235 baby girls born in the US in 2012.

Whenever I hear this name I always think of the band Margot & the Nuclear So and So's. Which is actually how I came to like the name so much. Also, wonderful band by the way.

I prefer it spelled Margo, because the T is silent (so why even have it?) and because it looks like "maggot" when spelled that way.
