Maghann is in Origin.

Maghann is a modern creative spelling of Meghan, which itself descends from Welsh Megan, the affectionate diminutive of Margaret. Margaret comes from Greek Margarites (via Latin Margarita), meaning "pearl," the sense commonly associated with Maghann. Most bearers pronounce it MEG-en or MAY-gen, mirroring Meghan.

Megan has been attested in Wales since the Middle Ages and spread widely in the English-speaking world in the 20th century, surging in the 1970s–1990s; Meghan gained added visibility in the 2000s–2010s. Maghann remains rare, largely a North American variant that preserves the familiar sound while offering distinctive spelling. Close variants include Megan, Meghan, Meagan, and Meaghan; related international forms of Margaret include Margot, Marguerite, Margherita, Margarita, Mairead, Greta, and Gretchen, with nicknames Meg and Maggie. Note: Maghan (without the final n) is a Mandinka royal title/name meaning "prince," a separate etymology from the Margaret line.
