Maddalena

Beautiful.

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'.

This is really pretty - from the spelling to the way it sounds. Just added to my PNL. :-)

Maddalena is so much prettier than Magdalena! I really love the name Maddalena!

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 love it, it is poetic. My great grandmother's name, from southern Italy.

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).
