Pearl
Reet is an Estonian diminutive of Margaret, which ultimately derives from the Greek word margarites. It shares the same etymological root as names like Margot and Rita, signifying a precious gem from the sea. While very common in Estonia, it remains a rare and distinctive choice in the United States.
