[Opinions] Madeleine
Madeleine has become a favorite of mine again. If you could help me out...1. WDYT of Madeleine (this spelling only)?
2. WDYT of Madeleine Margaret? Does it sound too religious?
3. Any sibling suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I dont like Madeleine but I do like Madeline, so when you say this spelling only it makes me change my mind about the name. Madeleine Margaret sounds reduculous to me. One because I hate it when the FN and the MN start with the same letter and two because they are both kind of long and a big mouthful. Sorry.

1. WDYT of Madeleine (this spelling only)?
It's the version I'd use, if I had to. I'm pretty tired of it though. There are too many Maddies out there right now.2. WDYT of Madeleine Margaret? Does it sound too religious?
It's fine.

I love Madeleine... I am expecting a little girl this month and debating whether to name her Madeleine or Madeline. (Those are the only two spellings I like.) I love Madeleine, though for some reason a lot of people don't seem to know how to pronounce it.Madeleine Margaret is okay... I like Margaret but it seems a bit long. I don't think it sounds too religious to use, maybe if it were Madeleine Mary or something (though I don't know too much about the Bible so maybe someone who does might think it's more religious than I do.) For siblings what about Anna/Anne, Charlotte, Claire, Hannah, Isabelle, Josephine, Lucy, Natalie, Sophie?

I love Madeleine, it's now in my top 5, it looks and sounds beautiful.2. WDYT of Madeleine Margaret? Does it sound too religious?
I used Madeleine Margaret in a post yesterday (great minds think alike :D), it just popped into my head, I'm developing a thing for same letter combos. It doesn't sound too religious to me but then my knowledge of the Bible is paltry and most connections escape me.3. Any sibling suggestions? Thanks in advance!
Other names in my top 10 are: Isabel, Josephine, Arabella, Flora, Rosamund, Harriet, Violet, Cara, Grace, so these and along with Adelina, Emmeline, Cecily/Cecilia and Lavender would be used for sisters by me and Charles, Frederick, Theodore, Sebastian, Darcy, Jonathan, Augustus, Tristan, Albert, Francis, Edward, Aubrey, William, Sidney, Alastair would be used for sons by me.

Thanks for all the great suggestions. We do seem to have similar taste in names! By the way, Charles Frederick is a favorite of mine, too.

LOVE Madeleine Margaret. And Madeleine, the spelling and the name, isn't bad, though I like 'Madelaine' the best. :D Madeleine is, to me, very English sounding; so, for siblings, maybe Josephine, Georgina (my fave ever! Or Georgiana, Georgia, et cetera), Rachael, Leah, Elizabeth, Catherine...? Hope ya' find what you're looking for!-Kathryn (aka Kate)

1. Love it, it's adorable! This is my favourite spelling, too.
2. I'm not that into double initials with FN and MN. But I don't find it too religious.
