Maggie Origin and Meaning
The name Maggie is a girl's name of English origin meaning "pearl".
Maggie is a cute, earthy short form that has been in style for several decades now, still sometimes used as an independent name by such parents as Jon Stewart. First used in Scotland, it got a large bump in popularity via the 1971 Rod Stewart hit song "Maggie May." Today's Maggie might just as well be short for a more adventurous name such as Magdalena or Magnolia as for the classic Margaret.
Maggie Gyllenhaal was born Margaret.
