Help...Addison or Madelyn???
| Tue, 12-19-2006 - 11:45am |
I am in need of un-biased opinions. My husband and I can't agree on a first name for our daughter (due 4/07). We do, however, agree on a middle name, Grace. Our top choices are Addison Grace or Madelyn Grace. Grace was left over from our list of names last time - we have a son, Colin, who will be 2 in January. Addison Grace was our first choice, but we keep hearing comments wondering if we are considering naming our daughter after Grey's Anatomy.
Please give me your honest opinions!!! Another concern is that Addison is going to be a very popular name in a few years, whereas Madelyn is common, but may not be as popular. Our family hasn't been any help - they score is tied at the moment.
TIA!!!

Colin's little sis:
Madelyn Grace gets my number one vote. I think that it matches Colin in style also if you want the nn Addie you can easily get that from Madelyn. I like this spelling! If you can't decide between either Addison/Madelyn I think that Aubrey/Audrey is a great alternative.
Well my third daughter is named Madelyn so that gets my vote! LOL. At first I wanted to spell it Madeline but I didn't want people pronouncing it MAD-EL-LINE. Spelling it Madelyn is fine but I do have to tell people how to spell it. We mostly call her Mady. Great names!

Thanks to everyone for your help!! After hearing your thoughts on the name Addison, it was just the little "push" I needed to choose Madelyn Grace. My husband is excited since Madelyn is the name he picked out!
Thanks again!
