Madison is being used in England - for GIRLS! And I'm sure Taylor, Alexis, and other "male" names are, too.

Um...Madison, Taylor, and Alexis have been used here in the US on girls for quite some time (in fact, they ranked in at #8, #36, and #16, respectively.) I know they all started as male names, but sometimes names become unisex. I think these have been used long enough to put them in the unisex category. :/

I know. I didn't say they weren't. The surname trend in general is not as popular here as in America. Nicknames are not as popular in America as they generally are in Britain.
