Magda

[whatausername]

Does Magda sound too harsh?

Harsh and ugly sounding to me.

Love it, but like another OP I love all the hard Gs and think they will be refreshing for teens in a sea of Lilys and Ellies and bellas and amelias. So many Ls!

It does have a bit of a harsh sound. Agree with pps that Magdalena is better.

Madeleine/Madeline is based on the same root name I believe (after Mary Magdalene) but the hard 'g' sound is removed (I suppose because it's not in the French language), making it much softer and prettier IMO.

Oh reading back your replies I see you like a harsh G sound. Fair enough.

You lost me when you said that you liked Gertrude though!

Polish au pair.

Magda very ugly name sorry

Prefer the longer Magdalen/ene/ena.

I also like Magdalena but Magda is a bit Pauline/Carole.

I think it is a lovely name.

I think it is SO COOL. You can’t be called Magda and a loser 😂 It was on my girl’s shortlist but full name Magdalena (Spanish so “leh-na”) or Magdalina (Russian), and DH and I couldn’t agree. Luckily we had a boy so that was the end of our debate.

I love it.

Pemba I didn't say I liked Gertrude, a PP did.

Oh OK, sorry, my mix up.

IA with you that Madeleine is very pretty!

It's a lovely name.

I like it. I know someone called it. She's Polish.

I love it, strong and different to all the 'cute' names around x

It’s a great name
