Which suits her better? 2 names!

We had a girl (we didn't know the sex!) and have 2 names. Madison and Scarlet. We know that Maddison and Scarlett are more popular, but I do prefer the original spelling of Madison and the colour spelling of Scarlet.

Which suits her better? Surname is double-barrelled.

Thanks!

Oh how gorgeous! I think she's a Scarlet.

Scarlet

She's beautiful, congratulations! I think she looks like a Maddison Smile

Oh she is just so cute!!
Right, I'm leaving now...

AlletrixLeStrange · 16/06/2017 19:48

I just came for the cute baby photo Blush
I like both names but can't look at her and choose between them

msgrinch · 16/06/2017 19:47

Scarlet. She's beautiful. Congratulations! How are you doing/feeling? Well done :)

BikeRunSki · 16/06/2017 19:45

Scarlet

If you call her Madison, her entire name will be essentially 3 surnames.

TipTop333 · 16/06/2017 19:44

How weird is this - I looked at the picture before reading what you had written and the name possibilities and my immediate thought was 'Maddie', so was Shock to see Madison there! So that would definitely be my call...

Kittykatclaws · 16/06/2017 19:43

She's a stunner! Definitely a Scarlet! Flowers

MalcomTuckerInSpace · 16/06/2017 19:42

She looks like a Scarlet to me.

harderandharder2breathe · 16/06/2017 19:37

Oh and if you do go with Madison I think your spelling is nicer

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 16/06/2017 19:37

What a beautiful little baby, congratulations OP 💐
Definitely Scarlet !

harderandharder2breathe · 16/06/2017 19:35

She's gorgeous congratulations!

Both names are lovely but I think she's a Scarlet

Lemondrop99 · 16/06/2017 19:21

Gorgeous! She looks like a Scarlet to me

ThaliaLuxurySpa · 16/06/2017 19:20

OP,

Now that is one exceptionally lovely-looking baby.

Either name would suit her.

Congratulations! Flowers

MollyHuaCha · 16/06/2017 18:21

Congratulations!
Scarlet for me please.

Jooni · 16/06/2017 18:03

She looks more like a little Madison to me I think, but she honestly suits both Smile Many congratulations OP!

One other thing to bear in mind though is that if the surname is double-barrelled you run the risk of it sounding like three surnames if you go with Madison, like a big financial corporation or something. Obviously it will depend on what the surnames are though.

She's truly beautiful Flowers

picketfences · 16/06/2017 17:55

I prefer the name scarlet but looking at her lovely little face I honestly think she is a Madison!

Loyly · 16/06/2017 17:52

Scarlet. She is wonderful!

mummytobemaybe · 16/06/2017 17:51

Scarlet suits her better

Passmethecrisps · 16/06/2017 17:49

Oh she is beautiful.

I prefer the name Madison but she is so lovely I am sure she could carry off either name

BendydickCuminsnatch · 16/06/2017 17:48

Oh she is particularly beautiful! Lovely!

I'd say she looks more like a Scarlet.

Congratulations!

GinIsIn · 16/06/2017 17:47

Scarlet

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 16/06/2017 17:46

Beautiful baby! Congratulations.

She looks like a Scarlet to me.
