Madelynn or Kerrington?

Mrs Anderson · January 2009

I know you all will be honest!

adam+katie · January 2009

Madelynn. Are you set on spelling it that way?

Pathrell · January 2009

I like Madeline better with your last name. It flows really well.

*Scuzzlebutt* · January 2009

Madelynn, but I would spell it Madeleine or Madeline.

Mrs Anderson · January 2009

We wanted to spell it in a different way because we thought people would say "Mad-a-line" and we'd have to correct them all the time.

What do you think?

Aimee0289 · January 2009

Madelynn. I don't mind the spelling.

Kerrington sounds like a snooty rich name to me, like Thurston Howell III. I have no idea why, it just does!

*Scuzzlebutt* · January 2009

Your last name is Anderson? Madelynn Anderson is very rhyme-y to me. We always wanted to use the name Holden if we had a boy, but our name ends in -on and it just didn't flow when I said it out loud. You know?

Madelynn- I like the spelling!

JChandlerJBates · January 2009

Madelynn, but I like it with only 1 n at the end.

JCapp8306 · January 2009

Kerrington!! ?Reminds me of the girl on So You Think You Can Dance... ?I even cut my hair like her's.

Mrs Anderson · January 2009

haha thats where we got it from! We love that show & I feel in love with her name!

Madelynn

Madelynn, but spelled Madeline.

ETA: I see what you mean about people pronouncing it wrong. I still like the look of Madeline better, but I don't think Madelynn is terrible.

BeachyGirl01 · January 2009

I like Madelynn, spelled Madeline.?

thatgirlang · January 2009

I like the name Kerrington. But I had a student who spelled it Carrington so the Ke- spelling looks weird to me. Not that you asked! LOL

lildutch · January 2009

I would spell Madelynn the correct way. My DD's name is Madeline and no one has ever said it incorrectly.

DeafiesBride · January 2009

Madelynn sounds good too.

Kerrington sounds snooty. Isn't that a boy's name?

Paddington bear is a boy - sounds similar.

epona3 · January 2009

Madelynn, but I would spell it Madeleine or Madelyn.

Kerrington makes me thinks of Nancy Kerrigan (I had to look it up, b/c I thought for a minute that was her last name) and knee-breaking scandals. Definitely a BIG NMS.

my niece's name is Madeline, pronounced Mad-a-line and no one mispronounces it. I prefer her spelling.

Kerrington is very boy to me - I've only seen it as Carrington before also

heidismith · January 2009

I really like Madelynn, but is becoming very popular. I like Kerrington and havent heard it very much!

adam+katie · January 2009

Our friends used Madalyn.

I like Kerrington too. Madeline is too popular.

PianoPlayingSarah · January 2009

I like Madelynn. I don't think there's anything wrong with spelling it this way.

Kerrington sounds trust fund-ish to me.

What do you think??

Madelynn...and this makes sense to me. I've always had to ask otherwise.?

jenerally · January 2009

chloephoebecali · January 2009

mrs.officeryum · January 2009

Madelynn

alidawn · January 2009

Madelynn.

katekates27 · January 2009

I like Madelynn best of the two. Not sure about the spelling though ...?

IU_baby · January 2009

Kerrington.

Spin313 · January 2009

Kerrington...Madelynn is overused.

marbear81 · January 2009

I like Kerrington! Madelynn is very popular and if you used the nickname Maddie it's the same nn for Madison, yet another popular name! Kerrington is cute.. I can see this name as a successful business woman and if you wanted you could call her Kerri for short! GL

laure1122 · January 2009

haha...i watched so you think you can dance and even went to go see the live show

When I first saw Kerrington's name, I thought, wow she must be a snooty b*tch or come from money....but when I saw how down to earth and cool she was, I liked her and her name. So I vote for Kerrington (of course you could always use Kerri as a nickname if you wanted to sound less high brow!)
