What do you think of the German name Mädchen?

What do you think of Mädchen (MED shen)? It means "girl" in German.





I personally think it's a nice substitute for the horridly masculine Madison.

What do you think of the German name Mädchen?
It really is a nice substitute for Madison; it even has the nicknames Maddie and Mads.





Cute name, Janie!





Edit:


Hm, true. There aren't very many options past Mads/Maddie/Madders; there's Chen and Chenny, but those aren't very pretty. Perhaps Mimi?
Reply:I think people would have trouble pronouncing it, I find it quite hard to say-your mouth has to make a funny shape when you say it and you sound like you're lisping.
Reply:It's lovely and I like it, but it's very foreign to me. The only other time I've seen it is when I watched the movie 'Madchen in Uniform'.





Med is the only nickname I can think of. Or maybe Mim.
Reply:It does sound way better than Madison! I cannot believe all the people on here that like that name! It's horrid! It sounds like a last name.
Reply:i think its beautiful. is it a name in its own right though? if its not then if Madchen ever goes to Germany or meets a German person she will be laughed at heartily for being named "Girl".
Reply:its pretty...i like it! =D
