a message by Greta
Hi
Greta
,
There are no other meanings for
Greta
than pearl because
Greta
is a
German
and Scandinavian short form for
Margareta
, which means pearl.
Greta
has been quite old fashioned in Germany but is getting more and more popular again.
Regards,
Satu

I have seen the name listed as Greek, and meaning a child of light.
