Marrigold
Marrigold Origin and Meaning
Marrigold is a feminine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Marigold, which refers to the bright yellow-orange flower. The name derives from the combination of "Mary's gold," as these flowers were traditionally associated with the Virgin Mary in Christian traditions. While the standard spelling is Marigold, the double-r variant Marrigold gives the name a distinctive quality. The floral name suggests brightness, warmth, and cheerfulness, reflecting the sunny appearance of the bloom it references. Although not among the most common flower names (compared to Rose, Lily, or Violet), Marigold has experienced modest usage throughout English-speaking countries, with some renewed interest in vintage botanical names during the 21st century.
