Megan is a Welsh feminine given name, originally a diminutive form of Margaret. Margaret is from the Greek μαργαρίτης (margarítēs), Latin margarīta, "pearl". Megan is one of the most popular Welsh-language names for women in Wales and England, and is commonly truncated to Meg.[1]
Megan was one of the most popular feminine names in the English-speaking world in the 1990s, peaking in 1990 in the United States[2] and 1999 in the United Kingdom.[3] Approximately 54% of people named Megan born in the US were born in 1990 or later.[2] Megan is also frequently spelled Meagan, Meaghan, Meghan, or Mehgan outside of Wales and the rest of the United Kingdom due to spelling influence from Irish-language names [4]
