[Opinions] Funny mispronounciation of Madison
I was at the YMCA and a non-native English speaker was asking another mom what her daughter's name was. The daughter's name was Madison but the other mom thought she was saying "Medicine" and was asking why she would name her child that. It was pretty funny for me, but Madison's mom was pretty upset. I never realized that Madison sounds like medicine! Yet another argument against the name.

They sounds the same in the U.S., as far as I've experience  ·  1066  ·  3/1/2008, 1:20 PM
