Aspen or Maddie?

[Superdry17]

Thanks! :) I'm 40+2 so it's getting very close now.

Aspen

Ooh I like Aspen. I think Maddie is nice but it needs a "full name", it's a bit too nicknamey on its own (my name is Maddy but it's short for something). Aspen is really pretty.

Aspen.

I personally really dislike Maddie (I'm actually not sure why. It's probably kind of irrational/me being silly...). But Aspen is lovely :)

Not keen on either, sorry. Aspen if I really had to choose.

Are you an American teenage girl?

Maddie sounds faddy (and I didn't even mean for that to rhyme) and Aspen sounds like it will be the next Chelsea.

Maddie (but I'd use Madeleine).

No to both from me. Sorry to generalise but I get sense of USA or well off people in South East of England with one of those small trucks and another child called Tyler.

Maddie

Don't like either but Aspen

I'd use Madeleine nn Maddie.

Agree with NappingRabbit. Potential nicknames for Aspen would really put me off.

Maddie.

Aspen sounds like it will be the next Chelsea

Agree with this^^ (sorry to anyone named Chelsea, or Aspen for that matter). Nothing wrong with those names, just not my cup of tea. I know Aspen is a tree as well as a place, but I think some people will assume the place first.

Maddie is fine, but does sound like a nn. I like Madeleine with nn Maddie, but if you don't, then Maddie is fine on its own.

Yeah Aspen is a bit, um, 'look how worldly I am' in a tragically Beckham kinda way. Sorry. I suspect it is about to take off and there will be a zillion of them. It'll be like when Neighbour's started and every girl baby was called Kylie. It's a pretty name, and makes a very pleasing sound, but is going to be the equivalent of Sharon and Tracy in twenty years.

Madeleine is beautiful, now we have almost got away from the McCann link. Traditional rather than contemporary is almost always better.

I dislike the "places names as baby names" trend personally, and if I saw the name Aspen I'd assume it was a boy. It just sounds masculine to me, like Austin.

Do you watch a lot of My 4 Wives, OP?

Munted

My four wives? :=0

When ever I hear the name Aspen I always think back to the film Dumb and Dumber where Jim Carey hisses "Aspen".

Disike both. Asphalt Alpen cereal or aspirin. Maddie McCann. Maybe think again,

I do like Aspen. But, tbh, the name does remind me of a snake, for some (probably super weird!) reason...?

But I do think it's nicer than Maddie.

Aspen is godawful. Especially if you've never been to Aspen.

Maddie is fine. I like it more as a nickname, but it's fine as a standalone name too.

I like nature names and Aspen is pretty but risks Aspie as a nickname. Or Ass-pen. Sorry to point that out.

Hazel, Willow, Fern?
Arwen?

Maddy is okay but Madeleine is better.

I would assume aspen was a male name..?

I thought Aspen was a boys name?

It's quite harsh sounding.

I think Aston is more classy than Aspen.
... only because I know a gorgeous 24 year old Aston.
Madeleine is also very lovely.

Aspen is a gorgeous name
