Madeleine would be on the BC.

DTD Maddie and Olivia.

Doesn't the OP mean she is having twin girls 'DTD' so she wants to use Maddie (Madeleine) AND Olivia?

Both lovely IMO

Madeleine's really not done to death in the UK though. It ranks in the 170s for popularity. Olivia, by comparison is always in the upper half of the top 10.

GreenHillsSunnySkies · 06/04/2017 01:42

I like both of them but have to agree with a pp they've both been done to death, there are so many of them in the 0-5 age group especially and it's really going to date them one day. DH and I have 2 Maddies (one Madeleine and one Madison) and two Olivias in among our nieces and cousins' kids, our neighbour's dd is Maddie and her niece is Olivia. Same with the Joshs and Jakes for boys. Sorry, OP, not helpful I know.

I knew identical twins at school who's names were madeleine and Olivia. Everyone called them maddie and livvy.

deluxetrolley · 06/04/2017 01:23

Olivia nn Livvy

Olivileine? Maddivia, Olileine, Maddia? Molivia? ;)

ladylunchalot1 · 05/04/2017 21:49

Olivinne combination of the two

SuperBeagle · 05/04/2017 21:32

I like Madeleine more than Olivia, but Liv more than Maddie, so I'm no help. Grin

I'd probably pick Olivia simply based on my dislike of Maddie.

3littlebadgers · 05/04/2017 20:35

I like Madeline more, but I've taught two and they have both been...erm spirited Blush

CPtart · 05/04/2017 20:32

Madeleine before Olivia. OLivia before Maddie. Far far too many i.e. ending names about as it is.

daisypond · 05/04/2017 20:20

Both nice.
I prefer Madeleine, though

queenT90 · 05/04/2017 19:59

Olivia :)

ohdoadoodoo · 05/04/2017 19:49

I love Madeline and Olivia. Don't like Maddie - sounds common.

mum2be2boys · 05/04/2017 19:29

Love them both! I'd probably go with Olivia though :-)

hellooooooomama · 05/04/2017 18:06

Maddie!

I never understood the appeal of Olivia.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 05/04/2017 18:06

Either! Both lovely

mygorgeousmilo · 05/04/2017 18:05

Olivia is very pretty, but surely has been done to death at this stage? And Maddie is very boring and makes me think of poor little you know who.

dearmeee · 05/04/2017 15:41

Olivia

Mrsknackered · 05/04/2017 15:41

Olivia!
Maddie is so dull IMO.

ClaryBeanHorshAndMe · 05/04/2017 15:39

Olivia is really lovely.
I personally really don't like Maddie (or Madeleine).

BasicBetty · 05/04/2017 13:44

Olivia

Mum2jenny · 03/04/2017 22:49

Olivia, but I love Madeleine but loathe Maddy.

DramaAlpaca · 03/04/2017 22:46

Olivia

MaisyPops · 03/04/2017 22:45

Olivia.
I love Madeline but hate Maddie.

ActuallyThatsSUPREMECommander · 03/04/2017 21:40

I love Olivia but it's been very overused over the last decade
