Meaning:Pearl
Margo is a feminine name of French and Greek origin. Meaning "pearl," this precious name exudes natural beauty. Far from diamonds or rubies, pearls exist in a world of their own, gently forged within the soft surroundings of freshwater and saltwater mollusks. Created by mother nature herself, these lustrous little gems have inspired many myths and enlightening symbolism. And while many liken pearls to the moon, wisdom, and wealth, their ancient association with the goddess Venus is the most enduring. Named for a miracle of the ocean, Margo is the perfect title for the rare and wonderous love only a baby can bring.
