Megan Plain and Simple
written by Megan Elizabeth, March 20, 2008
My name is Megan and although it is a common name for kids born in 1984, like me, I love my name. I think the best way to spell it is Megan and it is unnecessary to add other letters. People frequently want to add an "h" to my name and it is very unnecessary... my name is not Meg Han, simply Megan. I also feel adding random letters is also quite silly like Meaghan, Meagan or Meagean. Keep it simple and beautiful... Megan. My friends often call me Meg, Meggers, Meggie or Megs...all of which are great nicknames!

There were four people in my town at my regional high school. I found out that there were about two more. Everyone who talked about a Megan would have to ask which one.

Me (May)
written by Megan, June 23, 2008
Although I have grown to like megan over the years, I usually go by Me pronounced May. My parents and friends thought there were too many megans and megs when i was little and wanted a graceful, pretty nickname for me, so they went with may.
I love the name!

My name is Megan and I love it! My favorite spelling is Megan. (Followed by Meaghan, Meghan, Meagan, Meggan, Meghann, ect.) There are so many ways to spell this name, but I like M-E-G-A-N best! I pronounce it Meh-gan, but many people pronounce it May-gun. I prefer my pronunciation best!

My eldest daughter is called Megan.It is a Welsh name that comes from the warrior Queen Megan and is many centuries old.It is a beautiful, strong name that has stood the test of time.My Great Grandmother was also a Megan. My daugher gets called Meg or Meggie by her friends.Much to her annoyance we also call her Meggie-pop-a-loo-lees! (Though I don't think it's commonly used!)

written by Magen, September 25, 2009
My name is Magen and it is pronounces may-gen which is different from meh-gen. I love my name although I think megan is too common, Magen is unique nd I have never net anyone else with their name spelled like mine. It puts a unique twist on a rather common name. i love it!!!
