I like the name/s [name]Magdalene[/name]/ [name]Magdalena[/name] but Im kind of afraid that despite it being sifferent it will get mistaken for [name]Madelyn[/name]/madison/madeline names…
I would probably use the nn [name]Maggie[/name] possibly [name]Lene[/name] or [name]Lena[/name]…
WDYT? [name]Will[/name] her name just be lost in the bunch?
I really like [name]Magdalene[/name], but I also like [name]Madeleine[/name]. It’s a name that will stand out though, I don’t think it will get swallowed by the flow of [name]Maddie[/name]'s
I think they definitely stand out in a very good way! I would not consider them the “same” as I do names like [name]Jayden[/name]/[name]Brayden[/name]/[name]Aidan[/name]. I like [name]Lena[/name] as a nn!
Oh, I love [name]Magdalena[/name]! It would be great to see this used on a little girl. I don’t think it will get mistaken at all. I think [name]Maggie[/name] is an adorable nn
It sounds like [name]Madison[/name]/[name]Madeline[/name], but it stands out. Also, it has a ton of other nicknames other than [name]Maddie[/name] (We have a surplus of Madisons in my area around my age- it’s horrendous how many Maddies I know), from [name]Maggie[/name] to Dali to [name]Lena[/name], and it’s not a stretch for [name]May[/name] or [name]Meg[/name]. It sounds popular but it isn’t. It’s a flowery name that’s historical and can be shortened into spunky nicknames.
I like [name]Magdalena[/name], but once I hear “correct” English pronunciation of this name and dislike it instantly. Pronunciation I hear was similar to maudelena, so I hope this isn’t correct one.
[name]Magdalene[/name] would not stand out (that “g” is the only thing that separates it from [name]Madeline[/name], depending on how you pronounce it.) [name]Magdalena[/name] would- a little bit. And [name]Maggie[/name] in a sea of Maddies? It’s really not that different.
The thing about fitting in/standing out names is that they still fit in- which is something parents generally like about those names. It really isn’t at all a bad thing. I don’t think she’d often be mistaken for [name]Madeleine[/name] (that’s more true for [name]Magdalena[/name] than [name]Magdalene[/name]) but it does sound similar. Again, that’s not a bad thing. She likely won’t share her name with other girls in her class, but the sounds will be familiar enough that no one thinks her name is weird. I love [name]Magdalena[/name] and I’d love to meet one!
