Boys:
Jaxon- Jackson/Jaxon is *really* popular. Don't know if that bothers you having a Madison, but thought I would point it out. I am pretty tired of it
Marshall- Would avoid another M name
Ripley- prefer on a girl
Maximus- would avoid another M name
Cameron- like it, but nothing special
Duncan- seems awkward sounding
Prahlad- nms
Parker- like this
Preston- like this
Paxton- like this
Payton- like this, although very unisex
Seven- nmsAA, horrible
Diego- very cultural sounding

I don't really love the boys list... I think you should keep looking.

Girls:
Everly- a bit of a twist on Evelyn, nice
Ripley- LOVE this on a girl, so spunky
Riley- really popular, now boring
Penelope- like this, although not with Madisyn
Camryn- nope, can't stand this on girls, and horrible spelling
December- ugh... this is bad
Michaela- would avoid another M name, especially this one being so trendy
Paloma- beautiful
Pilar- beautiful, would make a great mn too
Arien- okay
Chandler- spunky, like it a lot
Tiegan- like it, dislike this spelling. Teagan makes more sense
Acelin- nmsaa, looks completely thrown together
Camila- beautiful, spelt Camilla
Delfina- like this
Neva- beautiful
Rebecca- lovely

Love the girls list.

Hi there....I love the name Diego, but I'm not thinking I like it with a mn. My fav boy names are Evan & Dominick.

Arien Pilar is pretty. Fav girl's names that come to mind are River, Charlize & Britian. If my last ds was a girl...he would have been Charlize Rose or Britian Rose.

Good luck with the name game :)

Here is my $.02

Boys:
Jaxon~~ I'm not a fan of this name and most specifically this spelling. If it is a top contender I would spell is Jackson. But I don't think I like the -son with your DD.

Marshall~~ Good name, but too many M's for me if you 2nd is an M your 3rd will also need to be. I'd rather not be tied to a letter.

Ripley~~ I immediatley thought Believe it Or Not. NMS

Maximus~~~ Love the name, except for same reason at Marshall

Cameron~~ This name has become Too unisex, especially when paired with Madison...people may think you have 2 DD.

Duncan~~~ Like this one...it would be my 2nd Fave on DH's list.

Prahlad~~~ Never heard it before.

Parker~~ ******This is my FAVE on the list!! It goes perfectly with Madison*******

Preston~~ This would work except for the Britney Spears connection.

Paxton~~~ This is a former basketball players for the Chicago BUlls. That immediate connection cancells it out for me.

Payton~~ Last name of "sweetness" mr walter payton former CHicago BEars player. (can you guess where I live?)

Seven~~~ I like the name, but I think it is too different in comparisson with Madison

Diego~~ Are you of Latin decent? if so it might work...if not No.

Girls:
Everly~~~Just something about it that doesn't fit with DD

Ripley~~ Not good for Boy...way not good for Girl

Riley~~ It's the same "style" as Madison, i'm just not a fan

Penelope~~ Pretty. one of the best on the list

Camryn~~ too unisex

December~~~ Pretty, but not the right pair for DD

Michaela~~ M thing again.

Paloma~~~Pretty, see December

Pilar~~ Iknow itis a name a lot of people love but all I see is a pillar candle shape. Sorry

Arien~~ not sure how you are pron. I like Erin, but not Ar EE en

Chandler~~~ too masculine next to Madison

Tiegan~~ Has become too unisex for my taste

Acelin~~ Sounds made up to me

Camila~~ Would prefer Camille...one of my fave names

Delfina~~ NMS

Neva~~~ Could be misspronounced to sound similare to sland for never (Nev-ah as is no way.)

Rebecca~~~ Pretty name it would work well with Madison

Here are some additional girls names that might go

Emerson
Emmaline
Alexandra
Mariah if you like the M's
Charlotte
Annemarie
Patrice

Kimberly Michelle
Philip Michael - dh
Madisyn Kate - dd
