Going for both singular and plural were perhaps the best way. True, coefficients are in plural as well.

I would prefer "marginalEffects" over "marginalEffect", because the function (corresponding methods) generally does not return a single marginal effect but all marginal effects. It would also possible to allow for both notations, e.g.

marginalEffects <- function(object, ...)
UseMethod("marginalEffects")

marginalEffect <- function(object, ...)
UseMethod("marginalEffects")

OR:

marginalEffects <- function(object, ...)
UseMethod("marginalEffect")

marginalEffect <- function(object, ...)
UseMethod("marginalEffect")

What do you think?
