It serves as a variant of the names Margaret and Daisy, both of which derive from the Greek word margaritēs, meaning pearl. This connection underscores the name's connotation of beauty and value, as pearls have been historically cherished jewels. Marghanita captures a unique phonetic twist on these established names, making it distinct while retaining similar symbolic meanings.
