Marget has a vintage charm that connects to its historical usage while sounding slightly different from the more common Margaret. The name carries the same associations with beauty and preciousness that the pearl symbolism suggests.

Its concise form makes it straightforward while still evoking the elegance associated with its more familiar counterparts.
