An uncommon Greek pick — distinctive and rare.
Marji is a girl's baby name of Greek origin, a diminutive of Marjorie, itself the medieval French form of Margaret, from the Greek margarites meaning 'pearl.' It has the sweet, informal warmth of a nickname that has become a fully independent name in its own right.
Marji has 20+ years of history in the U.S., first appearing in 1939.
