  Thanks Ladies! I guess Madelyn makes the most sense.

  Personally I prefer Madeline, it just looks more traditional to me and was on our short list because it was my great grandmother's name. However, I am a stickler for avoiding mispronunciations so I would go with Madelyn if that matters to you.

  I think Madelyn is the way to go to avoid mispronounciations.  My DD#2 is Madeleine and that throws people for a loop, is it -lynn vs. -line, but we still like the spelling and wouldn't change it even with the occasional mispronounciation.  <
