Despite unfortunate opinions like these, I think Margaret's day is due. It's the name of queens, saints (including one called Margaret the Barefooted), and prime ministers. It sounds upright, impeccable, and strong. It's nickname selections range from spunky to super-cute. Consider:
Maggie
Mago (pronounced MAH-go, I think)
Maisie
Mamie
Meg/Peg
Greta
And if Margaret's not your pace, how about it's international variations?
Gita
Gituska
Gretchen/Grete
Gretel
Grieta
Mairead (MAU-reed)
Makelesi (MAH-ka-lee-see)
Mared
Marga/Margit/Margita
Margo/Margot/Margaux
Margreta
Marguerite/Margarethe
Margarita/Margareta
Marjatta
Margara
Margisia
Marka/Marketa
Megan/Meaghan
Meta
Rita
Marjorie/Margery
And, if I haven't mentioned it before, Margaret is my very favorite name.
