Thanks Baby Name Board! (also a mn question)

Conniebird

I was lurking here the other night and the name Madeline popped up. I brought it up to DH and he loved it. (for our hypothetical second child if she's a girl. And it goes well with Simon.

Now onto the dreaded MN question. Since we have pretty much decided on that name. We can't in good conscious use the use the middle name we had picked out. Lynn. I cannot name a kid Madeline Lynn, I just can't. Any good middle name suggestions? WDYT of Madeline Vanna? (it's a variation of my maiden name)

Names already off the table are Joyce, Hope, Rose, Lilly, and Marie

Give us more guidance. What initially drew you to Lynn? Is it a family name? Do you prefer a one-syllable name? A name that has double letters in it, like Lynn?

Vanna doesn't seem to flow.

Lynn is my moms middle name. I do like one syllable middle names but a two syllable name would work too, we have a one syllable last name that starts with S. I don't really care weather or not it has double letters.

Vanna is nms.   Why not just use your maiden name?   I love family names for middle names.

Ok, you got me. Who???

To the OP- how about Louise? It keeps the "L" from Lynn and has the same Frenchness as Madeline without sounding too foreign.

What about Madeline Denae Or Madeline Elizabeth?

I'm not so fond of Vanna (Vanna White much?). But I totally adore Madeline! Good choice!!! Although Lynn doesn't work well with Madeline, I do like the -lyn sound paired with Madeline... So I'm thinking a similar sounding name such as...

Madeline Evelyn

Madeline Catherine

Madeline Jacqueline/ Jaclyn/ Jocelyn

Madeline Rosalind/ Rosalyn

I love Madeline Elizabeth (assuming your using the mad-uh-lyn pronounciation). I also like Madeline Jane - but these are our family names we have considered with Madeline.
