Pegi
English origin
“A simplified spelling of Peggy, Pegi offers a streamlined, modern look while maintaining the cheerful spirit of Margaret's classic short form. This variant emerged in the 1970s-1980s as parents sought cleaner, less fussy spellings. It feels contemporary and uncluttered while remaining warm and approachable.”
