Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew of any nicknames that would be used for the name Madeline in France. I have been looking into this for a while now and have yet to find any and was hoping someone could help me out. Thanks in advance and I really appreciate any help! :)

Madeline is a rare, foreign name in France - only 2.839 women bear the name.

According to French wikipedia, the form Madeleine has Madou, Mado, and Madelon as traditional nicknames. I've heard Mady [mah-DEE] as well.
