Maggy

Meaning of Maggy

Maggy is a spirited twist on the timeless Margaret, tracing its roots to the Greek “margarites,” meaning “pearl.” Pronounced MAG-ee (/ˈmægi/), it sparkles like a hidden gem—warm, playful and effortlessly charming. The “y” ending adds a dash of modern flair to its classic pedigree, making it feel both familiar and refreshingly unique. In the U.S., Maggy hovers around the 900th spot with just a handful of newborns each year, so she’s unlikely to share her name with half her classmates—no awkward roll calls here! Whether you picture a curious adventurer or a thoughtful daydreamer, Maggy carries vintage elegance and approachable friendliness in equal measure. If you’re drawn to a name with pearly roots and a bright, contemporary twist, Maggy might just be the perfect fit for your little star.
