History & Origin

Madysin is one of many respellings of Madison, an English surname meaning 'son of Maud' - Maud being a medieval form of Matilda. Long a surname and occasional boys' name, Madison surged as a girls' name after the mid-nineteen-eighties, and inventive spellings such as Madysin and Madisyn multiplied.

This spelling was always uncommon - only a few dozen girls a year at its peak in the mid-two-thousands - and reads as a millennial choice. Madison and Madisyn remain the familiar forms, while Madysin has stayed a minor variant.

Did you know? Madison took off as a girls' name partly thanks to the 1984 film Splash, whose mermaid heroine playfully takes her name from Madison Avenue - a joke that launched a naming trend.
