I adore the Italian [name_f]Maddalena[/name_f], so that one! I feel like I should love [name_f]Madalena[/name_f] as [name_u]Brazil[/name_u] is super close to my heart and I love Portuguese names, but I came across [name_f]Maddalena[/name_f] first so she looks most ārightā to me. I donāt hate the look of Madeleina or Madelaina since I love [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] and [name_f]Madelaine[/name_f], but [name_f]Maddalena[/name_f] has my heart.
[name_f]Madalena[/name_f]
[name_f]Beautiful[/name_f] name!! I love it and one of my faves!
I have it on my list as Madeleina as I recognize/pronounce [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] as āmad-uh-LANEā. But, my second pick would be [name_f]Madalena[/name_f] and probably is more intuitive and easiest to spell
I also love [name_f]Madelina[/name_f] āmad-uh-LEE-naā. Adding the āaā onto a Madelyn/Madeleine/Madeline name really freshens it up and sounds gorgeous!!
[name_f]Maddalena[/name_f], and I adore this name.
I have that pronunciation as [name_f]Maddalena[/name_f] on my list!
[name_f]Madalena[/name_f] or [name_f]Maddalena[/name_f], I donāt think you can go wrong with either
Madelaina for sure! [name_f]Maddalena[/name_f] would be mah-dah-leh-nah to me.
Iām not great at explaining pronounciations, but Madalena and Maddalena donāt sound like the pronounciations you wrote.
Madalena is mah-dah-leh-nah. Maddalena is mahd-da-leh-na. Thereās many videos explaining the pronounciations of Maddalena in italian. Iāve found a video with the pronounciation of Madalena in Brazilian Portuguese (I will leave the link below), but Iām used to a slightly different pronounciations that is used in Portugal and other Portuguese-speaking countries (Iām Portuguese). I will also share videos where Madalena is pronounced in European Portuguese.
I would say Madelaina / Madeleina as mah-de-lay-nah or mah-de-lane-ah. Both are very close to what your looking for, I believe. I would use Madelaina or Madeleina for your pronounciation!

Maddalena pronounciation:
iād go for maddalena, like the italian !! i know that that isnāt quite how itās pronounced in italian, but itās definitely how it sounds in english - iāve known several british-italian girls called maddalena who introduce themselves as mad-uh-LAY-nuh.
I have a best friend with this name and she spells it [name_f]Maddalena[/name_f] !! She goes by [name_f]Lena[/name_f] (LAY-nuh) as a nn
Madelaina looks best too me and phonetically correct.
i have a friend named maddalena ālenaā too!! i would assume that spelling if i heard it!
Madelaina was my initial thought
Madeleina
Madeleina!
Iād spell it Madelaina
