  • I love Madelyn, but it's WAY too popular. I really dislike Kevin, but that's because it's an ex's name. Harley and Rocco are really blah. I really like Jessa but wouldn't use it. Augustine is a decent name but not one I'd use

  • I'm not a fan of Madelyn but I loooove Madeline.

    The only name I'm a huge fan of is Rocco and that's because I used to babysit the most adorable little IVF twins, Rocco and Luca (the fam was Italian) and they were so sweet.

    Cheering on all of my 3T ladies!  DX with PCOS - 11/2012 DH S/A & HSG - Normal - Too many rounds of Clomid = BFNs - New RE 5/2014 - Repeat Testing - Losing 40lbs before injects/IUI

  • Madelyn - Even with this spelling, it's too popular for my taste.
    Harley - Maybe for a dog...
    Jessa - I babysat a girl named Jessa when I was a teenager. It's a good name, just NMS.

    Kevin - I have a cousin named Kevin, so nope.
    Rocco - Too many bad connotations, thanks to a jerkface in high school.
    Augustine - I don't like the -ine at the end. I'd go for August, or even Augustus, but this just doesn't do it for me.

    (I'm way pickier than I thought I was.)

  • I really like the name Madelyn, but I also prefer the spelling Madeline. I don't care for the rest. Harley and Rocco are names that are better suited for pets. Kevin seems outdated. Augustine seems like a feminized variant to me. Jessa is okay, but not really a fan. Still feels kind of dated for some reason even though I don't know anyone other than the Duggars that have used this name. I could probably warm to it though.

    I could hold you for a million years
    To make you feel my love.
  • Madelyn is ok but it reminds me too much of Jon and Kate Plus 8's daughter Madelyn who was an asshole most of the time so I'd never use it.

    The rest are NMS.  Harley and Rocco are just awful.

  • I used to like Madelyn, but now a fertile mertyle at my word has named her baby that (alternate spelling) and it has TOTALLY ruined the name for me.   I can't hear the name Maddie/Maddi/Madilyn/Madeline without wanting to poke my eye out. 

    Jessa-Makes me think of Girls.  I like it but not enough to use it. 

    Harley-Boy or dog's name.

    Kevin, Rocco and Augustine are all horrible IMO.
