Variant spelling of Margaret, from Greek 'margarites' meaning 'pearl.'
Margerett is a variant spelling of Margaret, from Greek margarites meaning 'pearl.' That meaning has long given the name a sense of value, brightness, and classic femininity.
The altered spelling adds a more antique or ornamental cast, but the pearl symbolism remains unmistakable. The name feels familiar yet individualized, which is part of its charm. Margerett preserves the deep historical prestige of Margaret while giving the eye a different, slightly more elaborate arrangement.
It sounds steady and refined, with a traditional core that has endured across centuries. Margerett is rare, but it carries the kind of established dignity that makes old names remain attractive in new forms.
