Margita is a woman's name of Slavic origin, particularly common among Czechs and Slovaks. It is derived from the Latin name Margaret, which means "pearl." In its Slavic form, Margita is pronounced as mar-GHEE-tah. The name has been used steadily in these cultures for centuries but gained international recognition through notable figures like Margareta of Austria, a 15th-century duchess and regent, and Margaret of Anjou, wife of King Henry VI of England.
"Margita was quite popular as a baby girl's name in 1983 and 1984, with six babies named each year, totaling twelve in those two years alone."
