We've got our boy name picked out but are still back and forth on the girl name. Our latest option: Maggie Lee M______. Thoughts? Lee is a family name.
Maggie sounds nicknamey to me, too. I can't imagine a Supreme Court Justice named Maggie. Margaret, Megan, Margery, Marguerite -- these are all names that you can call Maggie.
I have a friend who is just Maggie, no formal longer name. It suits her well, and she is a professional woman. To my knowledge, not being a "Margaret" hasn't held her back
Re: Another girl name option
Ditto. Give her some options and use Maggie as a nickname.
