Brooklyn Avery.

[stratosfear]

Everyone's thoughts and opinions! I would really appreciate it
I know Avery is possible a masculine name but, I love it also on a girl as a middle name.
We are really stuck on the name Brooklyn but, there's other names possibly in the mix.
The other choice would be Brooklyn Madison.

Well, between the two, I much prefer Brooklyn Avery. Brooklyn and Madison have similar endings (-n) that don't sound as good together as Brooklyn Avery (which nicely shares a little R sound to tie them together sound-wise). Moreover, Brooklyn and Madison are both very NYC (Brooklyn the 'burb and Madison Square Gardens/Madison Ave.) which seems theme-y. Brooklyn Avery has a nice flow and none of that NYC redundancy.

This! Although I think Brooklyn is a meh name in general, and Brooklyn Avery feels very, eh.

I would prefer Brooke Madeleine or Aviva.

Brooklyn Madison is too masculine and too much of New York. Brooklyn Avery is nicer.

Well, between the two, definitely Brooklyn Avery. Brooklyn Madison is just too trendy together and I agree with pp about it being very NY-heavy.

I love Avery. Whether or not is started off male, it has definitely moved into the female camp. I think it's beautiful.

Personally, I really dislike Brooklyn. I think it's gone really down-market in the past couple of years. I don't mean any offense, I just meet a lot of people in my line of work - patients, candidates, parents, and children - and that's what I've observed about Brooklyn.
Is the the Br- sound you like? How about Brooke, Brianna, Briony/Bryony, or Bridget? If it's the -lyn ending, Evelyn, Madelyn, Katelyn (I prefer Caitlin but an -lyn ending could work), or Adelyn are possibilities.

In the end it's your child and with a name like Brooklyn, she would fit right in, as it is quite popular It's just NMS.

I think Brooklyn Avery is a little too masculine for me. I don't mind unisex names on girls, but I think the combo is a little too much. I know Brooklyn is a girls name, but the Brook- part sounds masculine to me. I prefer Brooklyn Madison!

I like Brooklyn Avery. It's not a name I would use myself, but I think it's very nice for what it is. A bit hard but not overly so.

I think Brooklyn Avery is much prettier than Brooklyn Madison! What about Brooklyn Hannnah, Brooklyn Sidney or Brooklyn Olivia? Brooke is also very pretty, and would go better with Madison if you really like that.

As a native New Yorker - I have to say that Brooklyn is a not a pretty place. It's really dirty and full of rats that are often the size of the average house cat. Plus the -lyn ending, it just seems done to death and pretty dated.

Avery is on my list for a boy, I think it's extremely masculine for a girl and I really dislike Madison.

What about just Brooke? It feels more streamlined and less dated. Something like Brooke Allison or Brooke Adeline would be nice.
