This is my mother's name and I absolutely adore it, it's one of my favorite names. When I was little and heard of people named Madeline I always kind of scrunched up my nose and thought 'my mother's name is prettier'.

Boom. Did you hear that? This name is the BOMB.
Way better than Madeline, in my opinion, because I LOVE the -lena and no one will get confused on how to pronounce it.

I have also seen "tower" as a definition of this name. I think it is a strong name for a woman. I was given it to honor a grandmother in Italy, and although my American mother chose to anglicize it, my father always called me "Maddalena" which I prefer.

I think this name would be adorable for a little girl if it is a name she was called by or a middle name. You could nickname her Maddie or Lena. Plus, there is no overly religious (or in that case a bit scandalous after a book or two).
