Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

I think [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] is lovely. [name_f]Mary[/name_f] [name_f]Magdalene[/name_f] is probably my favourite Biblical figure and I like all forms of her name. [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] also has many beautiful nickname options.

It’s very pretty - and dreadfully romantic - but not really my thing. I objectively like it, but it’s not exactly for me. I prefer [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f]!

Love it! I like that it feels dramatic, yet elegant and unassuming at the same time.

I love it! It’s elegant, long without feeling like a mouthful, and it has a truly vast array of nickname options.

I love this name!

It’s super popular in Poland with [name_f]Magda[/name_f] as the usual short form, which I think is seriously cute and cool. The full [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] feels dramatic and feminine, but with plenty of strong sounds which give it real gravitas.

One of the few Biblical names I like. I also like how it has so many nickname options for a child to grow into.

I love love love [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f], especially if said with the Spanish pronunciation, I’ll do my best: Mahg-dah-len-ah. I love the nns [name_f]Lena[/name_f] or [name_f]Magda[/name_f]!

I prefer slightly less of a mouthful for a 1st name, but would definitely use as a middle. [name_u]Love[/name_u] the biblical namesake too, even though I don’t usually particularly like biblical names.

It’s very pretty. I just wouldn’t want it shortened to [name_f]Maggie[/name_f].

It’s a long, dramatic, frilly name that I really like! Not something I’d use but one I love for other people.

I LOVE [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f]!

I use it in like every combo as a middle name lol. [name_f]My[/name_f] name is [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] though so it’s like a [name_f]Lorelei[/name_f] [name_m]Gilmore[/name_m] girls moment.

I understand the appeal: long and romantic. It just feels too frilly IMO :confused:
