    I like it, in fact I like it way better than Margaret. It makes me think of some trendy looking young lady from the 40's.

    Esargot. (Sorry, it's true!)
    I do not like the silent T in an English name.

    I like it and definitely with that spelling.

    Classic yet feels modern and prettier than Margaret.

    Conservative when I hear and Magot when I see sorry. I’m not a fan of it or Margaret.

    No problem! Is it English? I’m reading it’s a French variation of the Greek name Margaret. Either way, I love and hate the T at the same time. Love the way it balances the name; hate that it could be mispronounced.

    I love it. I'm directing a play where the lead is Margot. So it makes me think of 1950s England and murder mystery plots.

    I love it. My cousin just named her baby Margot and I think it just sounds so classic, yet fun.

    I like it but I tend to like Margaret better.  

    Would Marigold be a good compromise between the two?

    Margot Robbie. She’s amazing. Very down to earth in interviews. Definitely a positive association for me.

    The 2 toddlers names Margot (not sure of spelling) in my daughter's music class a couple months ago, and the Margot toddler in my neighborhood. Apparently it's pretty popular! (Although I just looked it up, and apparently it's not that popular overall, but gaining quickly, crazy that I know 3! Maybe some of them spell it differently which would bring up the popularity if you grouped them all together).

    I love it and think it's a super pretty name! Also the only Margo I know (spelled that way, without the T) is half French, so it being a French name seems accurate to me.

    Thanks for your feedback! It’s really starting to grow on me. My husband won’t spell it with a T, so it’s either Margo or back to the drawing board. Trying to decide...
