Josephine Margot.
That's what I want to name our baby (due in August). Nobody likes her middle name but me.
WDYT?

I like it overall. I would probably change the Margot spelling to Margo, because the -t ending makes me think of escargot (snails).

aw, I like it! Margot is very pretty.

[queer-kitten.livejournal.com]

I think both names are lovely and they sound awesome together

[alexandria-skye.livejournal.com]

[alas-earwax.livejournal.com]

I like it a lot. I love both those names and they sound good together.

I think it's an awesome name. I think it would really sound nice with a longer last name.

That's such a pretty name!

To me, the t at the end of Margot makes it look more distinguished - it doesn't look complete as Margo.

Pretty! I like Margot. Margo looks too trendy to me.

I like Margot a lot. I would use it personally if my husband was down with it.

I like it. It's very pretty!

I like Josephine well enough (used to love it as a kid), but really dislike Margot.

[penguiny7.livejournal.com]

Are you kidding me? The majority of people I've heard from like Margot! I personally love it. I'd use it as a nn for Margaret. I think that's my favorite spelling of it, with second being Margaux, and third being Margo. Although now that I type it out, I do really like Margo-- girl's names that end in -o are fun. :) It sounds very pretty with Josephine too. I'd like it even better if the combo were flip-flopped!

i love it. have you heard oh josephine by the black crowes? great song.

[sarahness.livejournal.com]

I freakin LOVE it!

[becomingun.livejournal.com]

I ADORE Margot, and I love that spelling. I love Josephine as well. Overall I think this is a FABULOUS name.

[waitingonsunday.livejournal.com]

Great choice! I think both names are beautiful, and work well together.

[aftondays.livejournal.com]

I love it!

[after-the-ashes.livejournal.com]

I think it's soooo beautiful! I love it.

[aunt-heather.livejournal.com]

aw, thanks rachel!

[after-the-ashes.livejournal.com]

I love the nn Jo or Josie and is makes me think of Little Women. Margot is my second favorite name like that (I love Magdalen) and I knew this really cool/pretty Margot. Who doesn't like it? I hope you stick with it anyway, but even if you don't, I think you have really good taste in names, so you'll find another good one =]

we have been calling her joey, like a baby kangaroo. jeff doesn't like margot, but he said the middle name is not important to him. she will have his initials (jme), and he thinks that's cool.
his mother is constantly suggesting new names even though i told her we already have a name picked out and i don't need any suggestions.
it's just not the filler type of middle name that everyone is used to (marie, mae, rae, ann, nicole, etc.)

THAT IS THE CUTEST THING EVER. When I get pregnant I will call the baby Joey until we pick out a name!

[aintlifesosweet.livejournal.com]

I think it's beautiful and sophisticated. A great baby name AND a great adult name.

[inebriatedcharm.livejournal.com]

It's cute. But at first glance, "Margot" looked like "Maggot" to me. ... Maybe that's just me.

[pegasus2o5.livejournal.com]

Ooh, I love Josephine. And I like the sound of Margot-- the only thing that gets me is the spelling. It looks so much like Maggot. I prefer Margo or even the fancypants Margeaux. But for a middle name, something like that shouldn't be a deal-breaker. Go with the spelling you like.

[arbus.livejournal.com]

i absolutely LOVE it! i love margot too! there is also margo and margeaux, if thats more amenable to others.

we are tentatively planning on a josephine (due in november) :)

[trishy-h.livejournal.com]

I love it! And because I'm a huge nerd I prefer it spelled Margeaux.

[laminy.livejournal.com]

That's not my favourite spelling of Margot, but it's 2nd! and I think they sound nice together.

[bandnerd88.livejournal.com]

It's so pretty! What a great name. :)

[miss-tee.livejournal.com]

I love Margot!
