I've come across one
Madeline who used that pronunciation - besides the kids' book series (and later movie). In the States it was refreshing, because it's usually pronounced the same as
Madilyn (which is a common spelling here).
I still prefer
Madeleine to the others, but I hesitate at the prospect of the nickname
Maddy, which I really don't like.
