What do you think of the name Meggy?

Question

was thinking of the name megan but its a bit popular were im from so i changed it abit.

Answer 1

Think of her as an adult professional - does Meggy work?  Just name her Megan and use Meggy for a nickname then when she's older she can go by her full name.

Answer 2

It's fine as a nickname for Megan. But it sounds very close to Peggy - which is really old fashioned. I probably wouldn't use it by itself for that reason. :-)

Answer 3

Not good. It rhymes with "smeggy" and if I've spotted it you can be sure cruel children will spot it.

Also it's the sort of name that might sound cute on a baby or toddler but on an older girl or grown up woman, not so much.

Answer 4

megan is a nice name but meggy sounds horrible...like an old lady who lives with her cats and smells of eggs

Answer 5

I like the name Megan, but not Meggy

Answer 6

Megan is prtty, meggy is horrible!!! Sounds like a cat!!!

If it is a bit common, pick a different name altogether. How about Teagan (tee-gan) or tee-guhn.

hope i helped =] xo

Answer 7

only meggy for short

x

Answer 8

I have to be honest with you, it's cute, but far too original. :] Maybe Mehgie??? So odd spelling to add some pizazz =D

Congrats on the baby.

Answer 9

Meggy is fine for a little girl, but not sure its suitable for an adult and remember the cute little girl will grow up

Answer 10

Yeuch. Dreadful.

Is OK as a diminutive for Megan or Margaret so why not do the poor child a huge favour and go with one of those?

Answer 11

Please please give her a more formal name like Megan or Margaret and use Meggy as a nickname!

Answer 12

Yes, I like it but as a nickname so if I was you I would name her Megan and then nickname her Meggy....to just name her that is like a dog's name.

Answer 13

I think it is really cute. Makes me think of Nutmeg.

Answer 14

It does nothing for me.

Answer 15

I think it sounds more like a nickname than an actual name.

Megan is nice though

Answer 16

Meggy is a cute nickname - but I don't like the name Megan. Also Meggy doesn't sound like a full name in its own right. Megara? Nutmeg??? hmm...

Margaret/Margarite - could be shortened to Maggie or Meggy.

Answer 17

i don't like Meggy or Megan, i don't know why

Answer 18

Sorry not a fan..Megan is ok.. go 4 something different and unique as u said meagan is real popular where ur from!!

Answer 19

i know a little girl called Megan that they call Meggy! I think its sweet but people will still assume its a pet name from Megan.  Maybe spell Megan differently but still call her Meggy anyway? Meaghan is the more traditional spelling.

Answer 20

Meggy is great for a baby or a young child, however I do think there is a chance she will hate it when she becomes an adult. If you are set on it, I would call her Megan / Meghan and shorten it to Meggy for as long as she is happy with it.

Answer 21

Meggy sounds like a pets name.

I too am trying to think of baby names and look on here for some inspiration. But, I think if you have to have to ask people what they think, for some approval then maybe you aint that sure about the name. No one likes the same names, its making sure that you like the name and it suits your child.

I really can't find a girls name I like!!!!!

Answer 22

i love it....i like Megan too...Meggy is usually a nickname for Megan.  i have loved that name ever since The Thorn Birds on tv!!

Answer 23

thats not a name. its a nickname.

Answer 24

My cousin's name is Megan and my grandma calls her Meggy but I would not do that unless her name is Megan or if you want to call her Margret I know someone with that name and she goes by Meg so you could just do that but call her Meggy.
