Help[Opinions] Re: Margalit
in reply to a message by Wordsmith
I named the daughter-heroine of one of my weird stories this name. It's so pretty and special, yet serious and reserved. Wonderful to see it get some serious attention here.
Hard to pair, in its uniqueness. I feel it needs something rather short, and nothing too ordinary. I'm drawn to Margalit Viola and Margalit Zelda of these listed. Margalit Zenaïde, maybe, without the extra A? Maybe Margalit Celia. Or Margalit Xenia.
-edit to add: First of all I think Margalit Xenia is the real winner of my contributions. And I wanted to add, how well the impression I get of the name suits its meaning, "Pearl," which I only remembered upon looking it up (I suppose it's related to Margaret, yeah?). The toughness coupled with the special shine you refer to.
For those missing out on the shine - it's the "lit" part! There's something so pretty about it being pronounced "leet" with so few letters. It so well matches the reserve of the rest of the name.
