Is this too 'cutesy'

Expecting a little girl and want to honour my mum, her middle name was Madeleine. The only problem our surname is Moore. Is Maddie Moore a bit too cutesy?

No, its nice. Its similar to Maddie Moate from Cbeebies and she's a great role model.

No, i like it! x

No, it flows nicely.

It works nicely. Not cutesy, Maddie Moore could be any age.

More Mad springs to mind.

Thanks all! The other contenders are Delilah or Imogen but as long as Maddie Moore isn't too cutesy I think we'll go with that Smile

I think it's lovely. When you said cutesy I was expecting something hyphenated

ParsleyPot · 03/01/2020 21:59

Maddie Moore. Shock

No, I wouldn't choose this name.

balletpanda · 03/01/2020 22:05

I know a maddie Moore. I've never seen any issue with it as a name. Don't overthink it Smile

Rollonspringtime2020 · 03/01/2020 22:09

Middle name to break it up. Nobody recites full title often do they?
Madeline Delilah Moore.
Didn't do Mary Tyler Moore any harm did it?

daisypond · 04/01/2020 13:05

It’s fine. I love Madeleine. Not keen on Maddie.

Freyanna · 04/01/2020 13:06

I like Imogen.

Robs20 · 04/01/2020 13:07

Love it!

Most people are known as Firstname Surname.
Of the names you mention, Imogen or Madeleine are best but Maddie Moore is too much and Imogen will be Immy Moore, which is too similar to Gimme More.
Delilah is awful.

Like PP it makes me think ‘More Mad’ and of teasing potential I’m afraid. I think Imogen Moore sounds lovely. Could be Immie or even Mimi when little or as NN.

IncrediblySadToo · 04/01/2020 13:13

It’s fine, it’s not too ‘cutesy’

Dollymixture22 · 04/01/2020 13:26

Maddie Moore is a great name. Love it.

Didn’t do Mandy Moore any harm😊 (not that your daughters generation will know who that is).

ChikiTIKI · 04/01/2020 13:33

I went to uni with someone called Madeline (Maddie) Moore! Lovely name :) good choice!

YorkshirePud1 · 04/01/2020 13:43

I think it's lovely too, go for it!

Dearymeop · 04/01/2020 14:27

I like Madeleine but love Delilah! Delilah Moore...lovely!
