Maggie

Maggie is an English diminutive of Margaret, which traces back through Latin Margarita and Greek Margarítēs to a root meaning pearl. The name has long functioned as an independent given name in English-speaking countries, not merely a nickname, and gained widespread familiarity through figures such as the fictional Maggie Tulliver in George Eliot's novel The Mill on the Floss. Related forms include Meg, Peggy, and the full name Margaret itself.
