Margret

Margret is a Germanic and English variant of Margaret, which derives from the Greek name Margarites, meaning pearl. The name entered medieval Europe through Latin Margarita and was borne by several early Christian saints, most notably Saint Margaret of Antioch, whose veneration spread the name widely across the continent. Margret is particularly common in German-speaking countries, while the accented form Margrét is the standard Icelandic equivalent. Related forms include Margareta, Margarethe, Gretchen, and Marguerite.
