Margorie

US Popularity Rank: 10477

Origin: Scottish

Meaning: Pearl

If you’re hoping to teach baby invaluable lessons such as “never be so kind, you forget to be clever” or “never be so clever, you forget to be kind,” you should consider the vintage-sounding moniker Margorie. Taylor Swift fans might recognize this beautiful name from the song Majorie, which is dedicated to her grandmother on her surprise album Evermore. A variant of Margaret, Margorie has Scottish roots and means “pearl,” reminding baby to take pride in their uniqueness and shine bright. Most common in the 1920s, this sweet title’s revival could either be credited to either Ms. Swift or your little trendsetter, who is sure to bring it straight back to the charts!
