I'm a HUGE believer that if you spell something, the spelling is how people are going to pronounce it.
I'd be INCLINED to spell it Margo, but then everyone that knows it should be
Margot
are going to comment on that, too.
SO: Do I want my kid to be called Mar-got for the rest of her life, or do I want her to hear "Oh, you meant without the t?" forever?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
