Florence Madeline "Madge" Syers (née Cave; 1881 –1917) was a British figure skater. She became the first woman to compete at the World Figure Skating Championships in 1902 by entering what was previously an all-male event and won the silver medal, which prompted the International Skating Union (ISU) to create a separate ladies' championship. Syers was the winner of the first two ladies' events in 1906 and 1907, and went on to become the Olympic champion at the 1908 Olympics, the first Olympic Games to include figure skating. She also competed as a pairs skater with her husband Edgar Syers, winning the bronze medal at the 1908 Olympics.

Well, this is...new.
Still trying to get used to how it sounds, though. I do like the spelling.

Palmolive dish liquid had a ubiquitous commercial in which a dowdy manicurist name Madge would tell her clients, "You're soaking in it," about the dish soap. That is really my only association with the name Madge, other than it being a flippant name they call Madonna in the tabloids. Given that it rhymes with vag, I'd avoid it as a nickname. Margaret has a lot of cute nicknames, so I can't imagine choosing this one. Even Marge is better than Madge.

Hideous. And reminds me of a grumpy old witch.

I really dislike Madge and Marge as nicknames for Margaret - they are horrid and dowdy and unworthy of beautiful Margaret - Madge was an old vulgar name for a certain part of the female anatomy, certainly used up to and during the eighteenth century in Britain. Madge seems reminiscent of 1920s and 1930s boarding school jolly hockey sticks characters in books for girls. Marge reminds me of margarine.

I think Madge is a great nickname for Margaret or Magdalena. It's more original than Maggie, but it doesn't have to be just a nickname either.

I actually really like this as a nickname for Margaret. It's cute, quirky, unique, but professional at the same time.

I think this would be a good nickname for a girl named Madison, instead of the overused "Maddie".

I think it's an OK nickname for Margaret. But it wouldn't do for a full first name.
