Yeah, they are pronounced the same in English. I just don't care for that pronunciation. I especially don't care for the emphasis being on Mad.

No, it was my understanding..

Madeleine "MAD-uh-lin"
Madeline "MAD-uh-line"

Really? It does make sense that they would be pronounced differently, but at least where I'm from they'd both be MAD-uh-line. That must not be true everywhere though! :)
