I like Dawson James much better than William James. I don't like your spelling Abygail at all. If you are going to use it Abigail is the better spelling. also - Abigail Rose sounds better than Abigail Grace. Madison Rose sounds OK, but there are like a million Madisons out there now

Without knowing the last name...

I like William over Dawson. Dawson sounds too last name-y to me, and doesn't have a great sound.

Definitely Abigail over Madison, but without the Y spelling. I think that makes the name a lot less classic and would be a pain to spell. Madison is just so trendy and over-used.

I work in the credit card industry and would strongly discourage anyone naming their child the third or a junior. It causes so many issues when the person files paperwork wrong and they end up crossing one another's credit bureau reports. It is a nasty mess because people don't list the suffix and I wouldn't encourage anyone to have and identical name to anyone else living if they can help it. We have a big problem with identity theft on this as well because the person will open an account and not have the SR/JR/III listed and the other name can very easily take over and commit fraud.
