How Madeline sounds
A three-syllable name, Madeline often sounds a little more formal and lends itself to a short nickname. A nasal ends Madeline, which lets its final beat ring a little before it fades. Its soft, humming consonants make Madeline sound like water to the ear. In recent U.S. birth records Madeline ranks among the most popular names, an easy, well-known choice. Madeline appears mainly as a girl's name in U.S. birth records.
The Saju view
Madeline starts on M, B, P, F or V, a sound that Korean name reading would place in the water group and that this scheme carries over to English. Madeline is a fire name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack fire. A chart lacking earth can lean on the fire in Madeline, since fire is the parent of earth in Saju. A chart that already holds plenty of fire is better served by another name, since Madeline would add to it.

The astrology view
