Proper noun
Marjorie
- A female given name from Ancient Greek.
- 1869 Thomas Bailey Aldrich, Marjorie Daw: IV:
- The daughter is called Marjorie--Marjorie Daw. Sounds odd at first, doesn't it? But after you say it over to yourself half a dozen times, you like it. There's a pleasing quaintness to it, something prim and violet-like. Must be a nice sort of girl to be called Marjorie Daw.
