- Comments and insights on the name Mada: | Edit
First off, it's pronounced "May-da". Everyone gets that wrong, and I'm alway correcting them. It's a very pretty name I've been told, and it does make people stop and look at it, especially when it's said aloud.
- Personal experiences with the name Mada: | Edit
I've met only one other person with this name when I was... maybe five? And I've heard of one other person through a friend. It's always made me stand out just a bit from everyone. My mother named me after my great-great grandmother, so this name means a lot to me.
My great-great-aunt's name was Mada G. (she's from Texas, and everyone in Texas has odd nicknames). My dad thinks it might have been short for Madeline and a middle name that stared with G, but he's not sure. Madeline is my middle name now, and I might go by Mada for short.
