Hi Ladies!
For my boy name I love Landry.
I know it looks like laundry but really that's the only downfall. I think I can deal. Do you think it's more if a boy name or a girl?
For my girl name I love Madeline.
Pronounced Line not Lyn
Sorry I don't like Landry either. Just the way it sounds and looks by itself, without thinking of laundry. Madeline is nice but yes, over done. What about Adeline? Pronounced 'line' as you said. NN could be Addy.

Landry does seem a little feminine to me and when I asked DH if he thought it was a boy or girl, he answered girl. I like Madeline, but be prepared for people to mispronounce it a bunch.
I like Madeline fine (and we always pronounced it "line") :-)
I don't like Landry. It *really* looks like laundry. There are lots of great boys names. Maybe you can find one with a similar sound? What about Landon or Loren?
When you've been married this long, you need a ticker to remind you.
I also think Landry is just way too close looking to laundry. You might be able to deal with it but, it's the kid that has to live with it. The question would be, can he deal with it?
Landry is one of my favorite names if I have a little girl. One of my friends has a boy named Landry and it works. I just think it's one of those names that works either way.
Landry feels southern and unisex to me. It's NMS because of the laundry association and I think that makes it a target for teasing. What about Landon Henry, kind of stretch it out a bit? I know Madeline is popular, but it's a great name. If you love it, go for it.
Thanks girls!! I didnt even think about the teasing the child would receive if named landry.. Because of the "laundry" association. Thanks for pointing that out, defiantly something to consider. Oh and Thank you for suggesting names!! I appreciate it!
For girls I like more vintage, elegent names and for boys I like more unique
Re: Opinions please
The only Landry I know is a girl, it is very feminine to me...I honestly don't like it for a girl, hate it for a boy.
Madeline is meh, been so used...I am over it.

Landry is NMS, but I do think that it's a boy name. And Madeline is adorable.
eta: I see that you're getting some boy name suggestions. I'll throw a few out there, too...
Jack, Cash, Harry, Roman, Nolan, Dexter, Jackson, Sebastian, Finn, Micah, Rufus, Tobias, Isaac, Archer, Elliot, Sawyer, Duncan, Felix, Silas, Beckett
Or something more classic (like Madeline)...

Thank you for spelling Madeline correct with how you want to pronounce it. So many people spell it -Line but say it Lyn. Anyways beautiful name.
Landry is definitely a boy name. I like it but I agree, super close to Laundry.
not a fan of landry. i do, however, think of it as a boy name...a very southern boy name, but a boy name none the less.
madeline is okay.
Love Madeline!
