Skye. I generally prefer names that are short.

WyfOfBathe · 01/01/2017 00:39

I prefer Maddison, although Skye's nice as well. Would you consider Madison (1 d) instead?

Sweets101 · 01/01/2017 00:40

Keep either and see which suits her best when she arrives

Sweets101 · 01/01/2017 00:40

Oh unless she already has, in which case I can see your dilemma!

Maddison.

But I prefer the spelling Madison.

I have a Maddison so that gets my vote

Skye - Paw patrol factor

KoalaDownUnder · 01/01/2017 08:31

Skye.

I don't really like Maddison.

1horatio · 01/01/2017 10:30

Skye :)!
I don't really like Maddison, tbh.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 01/01/2017 10:36

Skye, I don't like Maddison either.

Skye. I know of at least half a dozen Maddison/Madisons which would put me off, plus I just prefer the name Skye.

1horatio · 01/01/2017 12:13

Plus, Maddison means son of Maud, I think.

The meaning wouldn't put me off but it wouldn't make me like the name either...

Skye is nice, crisp and short and not overused. 👍

ViewBasket · 01/01/2017 12:48

I prefer Skye. Maddison is a bit harder sounding.

MikeUniformMike · 01/01/2017 13:08

Maddison is awful sorry. Madison is slightly better.
A bit like Alison.

WaitrosePigeon · 01/01/2017 22:20

Both pretty bad to be honest.

Aquamarine1029 · 01/01/2017 22:51

Skye for sure. I love the shortness and simplicity. Maddison is WAY overused.

Gallavich · 03/01/2017 06:57

Skye
But if you like madison then spell it with one D

bookworm14 · 03/01/2017 07:32

Skye.

Madison is only seen as a girl's name now because it was used as a joke in the 80s film Splash.

user1483387154 · 03/01/2017 09:32

Maddison, Know so many children called Skye its really commonly used

Beebeeeight · 03/01/2017 09:50
