My name is the Gaelic version of the Welsh derivative name Margaret. The meaning of Margaret, "pearl," comes from Greek. Supposedly, the Greeks took their word from Sanskrit.I learned all of this awesomeness from Behind the Name.
This website is for the etymological inclined. Unlike most baby naming sites, it goes beyond popularity and meaning. Behind the name also has information on names (as a thing), name days, and namesakes.
If you're looking for a bit of fun, you may want to check out the anagram names. (Sadly, there are no anagram names for cupcake.)
