Maggie is a girl’s name with Greek origins meaning “pearl.” This cute name is often associated with the classic name, Margaret but has become a name all of its own, and why not? Not only does it look appealing on paper but the way “Maggie” flawlessly rolls off the tongue sounds rather charming. Fans of singing legend, Rod Stewart, may recognize this name from the famous song Maggie May. Though Maggie may be considered a nickname itself, this name also has its own shortened variations such as Mag, Mags, and Mae.
