Madisen is a first name for girls.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Madisen is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 3 out of 100,000 girls have been named Madisen. In the SmartGenius ranking, Madisen is #3,269 on the list of most common girls names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Madisen.
Madisen is a fairly recent phenomenon. In the past, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Then, unexpectedly, Madisen cried out for attention, reaching its peak in popularity at #622 in our SmartGenius statistics in the year 2000. People over 50 probably didn't have classmates named Madisen, for there were many years in which not a single parent chose this first name for their daughter. Although it also has never been in the top 100 of most popular first names, Madisen seems to have been in vogue for a while, especially since the beginning of the new millennium.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Madisen was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
12 babies were named Madisen in 2022 - that's 1 in 12,352,658 newborn girls. With this number, the girls' name Madisen ranked 7,418 in our SmartGenius first name statistics in 2022, the most recent year for which records are available.
You may not know anyone named Madisen, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 37 states are home to women and girls named Madisen. (To be fair, a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s entirely possible that there are still a few women and girls named Madisen living in one state or another. If your name is Madisen and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In Utah, which has the most people named Madisen relative to the population, you still have to ask 5,191 women and girls their names before you hear Madisen as an answer just once.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter M is a quite popular first letter for girls' names. That’s because 8.5% of all common girls’ names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letters A and S are more common for girls' names.
With seven letters, the name Madisen has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight letters or more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
Therefore: As 8.5% of all girls' names start with an M, this initial letter occurs nearly 2.5-times as often as all 26 letters on average – and the most common one of all the girls’ names starting with M is Mary.
If your name is Madisen and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
