So, I'm a retired teacher from Atlanta. Children with unique names, or even common names with unique spellings, pay for those names from the day they are born til the day they die. People are constantly asking how to spell and/or pronounce their names. Other people make fun of them. They are routinely discriminated against when applying for jobs and college admittance. It should be criminal to do that to a helpless child. I had two sibling students named My'Heaven and My'Joy. I gave them my email address and told them if they wanted to change their names at age 18 to let me know and I'd pay for it. The first time I saw the name Addison I IMMEDIATELY thought of Addison's Disease. Jack Kennedy had it and it is a horrible, incurable disease. I honestly think the only people who WOULDN'T think of that would be people who are sadly uneducated. DON'T DO THIS KIND OF THING TO A PRECIOUS LIFE.

Addison is a city outside of Dallas, Texas. It was named after Addison Robertson, a man, in 1902. I agree re: This is as hideous as Madison and there should be a law put into effect banning the naming of any further innocent little girls from being subject to this surname.
Addison was a character in Saw II. She played a prisoner in the Nerve Gas House along with seven others. It was hinted at on the Saw II commentary that Addison was a prostitute or a stripper.
