📖 À propos Margarita
Margarita est un prénom féminin lumineux d'origine grecque ancienne signifiant 'perle.' Répandu dans toute l'Europe par les premières saintes chrétiennes — notamment sainte Marguerite d'Antioche — il s'est épanoui en une riche famille de variantes : Margaret, Marguerite, Margherita et d'autres. Dans la culture espagnole, le nom signifie aussi 'marguerite' (la fleur), ajoutant un charme floral. Il a acquis une profondeur littéraire grâce au roman emblématique de Boulgakov, et est célébré dans le monde hispanophone, des reines aux scientifiques.
