Help[Opinions] Re: Marguerite
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
I'm having trouble imaging it being mispronounced, but then, I'm surprised every time someone pronounces the Ls in tortilla, so what do I know.
I remember using it for a character in a flash fiction writing exercise (and my story turned out to be surrealist) in high school; one of my classmates also used it in that exercise, so I have this idea that it's a borderline cliche 2000s hip intellectual type name. It's pretty, though...in an understated, mature way.
My main other associations are Marguerite Duras (French New Wave) and Ever After (Renaissance era socialites).
It also seems a little like Simone or Genevieve, to me.
I think I prefer Marjorie to both Marguerite and Margot.
