Peggy has become a name like so many other nicknames, but at one time it was a nickname for Margaret. Milly, Molly, Polly are nicknames for Mary, and don't ask me how. Sukey is a nickname for Susan or Susanne. Nettie is a nickname for Virginia; Maggie and Margie have also been nicknames for Margaret but they too have become popular names.
