[name]How[/name] long is [name]Madeleine[/name]'s middle name?
I would suggest:
[name]Alaina[/name]
[name]Beatrice[/name]
[name]Cecile[/name]
[name]Claire[/name]
[name]Eleanor[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Giselle[/name]
[name]Helene[/name]
[name]Josephine[/name] - as a first name…
[name]Juliette[/name]
[name]Rosalie[/name]
[name]Simone[/name]
[name]Violet[/name]
Like any of those?
Thanks - there are certainly some there that we considered and there are some interesting ones that we haven’t . ([name]Genevieve[/name], [name]Helene[/name], [name]Claire[/name], [name]Juliette[/name] and [name]Rosalie[/name]). Problem is that NO name is really sticking out to us because we are likely overthinking it. [name]Madeleine[/name]'s name was an easy one for us.
[name]Madeleine[/name]'s middle name is [name]Yolande[/name] ([name]Yo[/name]-LAWN-ed) and our LN is [name]Wallace[/name].

Okay, is that yo-LAHN-duh or yo-LAHND? [name]Madeleine[/name] [name]Yolande[/name] [name]Wallace[/name] - so very French and lovely!
I’m sorry none are sticking out. Maybe it would help if you told me specifically what “bothered” you about each name…
Oops 
That would be yo-LAHN-duh
I think I am just looking for the same gut feeling that I had when we chose [name]Madeleine[/name]. I loved that name for years and always knew that would be my daughter’s name…didn’t have another favourite name lined up!
I would like a name that is classic, feminine, not overly popular, not overly “old”, not too different or trendy. Too much to ask for
I voted for [name]Julianne[/name], but I prefer [name]Julia[/name] and [name]Juliet[/name]. What about:
[name]Louisa[/name]
[name]Elodie[/name]
[name]Emmeline[/name]
[name]Gloria[/name]
[name]Helena[/name]
[name]Frances[/name]
[name]Elena[/name]
[name]Bridget[/name]
[name]Sylvie[/name]/[name]Sylvia[/name]
[name]Hazel[/name]
[name]Liliana[/name]
[name]Vivienne[/name]
[name]Rosalie[/name]
[name]Marina[/name]
[name]Alice[/name]
[name]Fiona[/name]
[name]Claire[/name]
[name]Cleo[/name]
[name]Alexandrine[/name]
[name]Marguerite[/name]
[name]Paloma[/name]
[name]Estelle[/name]/[name]Estella[/name]
[name]Delia[/name]
[name]Lucia[/name]
[name]Katerina[/name]
[name]Talia[/name]
[name]Maura[/name]
[name]Keira[/name]
[name]Celeste[/name]
how about…
[name]Florence[/name]
[name]Isabelle[/name]
[name]Amelia[/name]
[name]Juliette[/name]
[name]Lillian[/name]/[name]Liliana[/name]
[name]Louisa[/name]?
I really like julianna kathryn or josephine as a first name is sound french like madelein or maybe [name]Kathryn[/name] spelt catherine as a first name would go well
So after your suggestions, further debate, a new find and reflection on an old favourite…Here are our top three…any thoughts?
[name]Elianna[/name] [name]Mary[/name]
[name]Anneliese[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name]
[name]Evelyn[/name] [name]Mary[/name]
Thanks…your opinions are appreciated.
I would say [name]Juliana[/name] over [name]Julianne[/name]
[name]Elianna[/name] [name]Mary[/name]: I think it’s really pretty, but I can better see another name with Madeliene, because the styles seem so different to me, and because the “elian” part of [name]Elianna[/name] and the “eleine” part of Madeliene seem too close to me.
[name]Anneliese[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name]: I really love [name]Anneliese[/name], and can see [name]Anneliese[/name] and Madeliene as sisters. (I love [name]Madeleine[/name] and [name]Anneliese[/name] together!)
[name]Evelyn[/name] [name]Mary[/name]: I think it’s beautiful, but [name]Evelyn[/name] has more of a vintage feel to me than [name]Madeleine[/name] does. I also really love a name that doesn’t end in N with [name]Madeleine[/name].
I’m going to vote for [name]Anneliese[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name].
Some more names I can see with [name]Madeleine[/name] (I love your daughter’s name!):
[name]Annabelle[/name]
[name]Camille[/name]
[name]Cecile[/name]
[name]Charlotte[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Juliette[/name]
[name]Rosalie[/name]
If these have already been suggested, I’m sorry for the repeats!
Good luck!
I voted for [name]Anneliese[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name]. But I really love [name]Anneliese[/name] [name]Kate[/name] or [name]Anneliese[/name] [name]Katherine[/name] even more. [name]Love[/name] [name]Anneliese[/name] so much, one of my favorites.
I love [name]Evelyn[/name] [name]Mary[/name], too. Such a warm and cozy name combo! What about [name]Evelyn[/name] [name]Kate[/name]?
