I think that all of the names on your list are fairly common....

I do like Morgan and Natalie.

"new" names?????

Natalie is very classic, been around forever. Madelyn (diff spelling than you have) is an older name, that just recently became popular again. Sydney is VERY popular right now, Morgan, even for girls, started showing up a lot in the 80s. Kendall and Lacy are are probably the "least new" and least popular.

I prefer Kyndle as a twist for the girls name, more feminine, as Kendall is also used for boys. I can't imagine anyone using Lacy on the heels of the Lacy Peterson saga.

I voted for Natalie on the poll just because I liked it the most.

good luck

None of these names is new.
I voted for Natalie, because it's the least common.
If she has brothers, I vote against Sydney (althought I really really love it), Kendall, and definitely Morgan. Of course, I am anti-unisex in the first place. Madilyn (Madeline, Madeleine, however you want to spell it) is far too common, and not my cup of tea in any case. Lacy...too many connections to the whole Laci Peterson shenanigan.
Natalie is very pretty. Good luck to you!
Congrats on your girl! :o)

I voted for Madilyn, but just my preference - I prefer when it's spelled either Madeline or Madelyn. Mostly I picked this because it isn't terribly common right now - at least I haven't heard of too many, if any, baby girls being named that recently. I don't keep up on SS lists or any of the other lists, I just like names/meanings and such! Good luck and congrats!

Madeline (spelled many ways) is very common where I live (Boston area). There are also a lot of Madisons, which makes for LOTS of Maddies - - nn for both names.

I saw the other responses after I'd posted lol. I truly haven't heard "Madeline" in any form since I was a kid, probably, but if it's popular in other areas, then it would probably go off my list ;-). The nn "Maddie" I've heard from the seemingly zillions of "Madisons" (and their various spellings) that I know of. I hadn't really thought of nn's for Madeline when I was voting, but I can see where that overused nn would come into play.

I voted for Natalie because my dd was born 02/02/05 and we named her NATALIE too!

Love the name and am happy we chose it. Good Luck!

I didn't vote because i don't think any of them are new or uncommon, they are very trendy and overused

sorry
