The name Maudeline is a girl's name meaning "from Magdala, from the high tower; strength in battle + high tower".

Sensitive and elegant, but with a hint of vintage clunkiness, Maudeline can be considered a form of Magdalene, or a compound name, blending Maude with Madeline (also a variant of Magdalene).
 
Reminiscent of the English word maudlin, meaning "emotional, sensitive, weeping, tearful", it was used by Tim Burton for a character in the 2005 movie, Corpse Bride, lending it an eerie and gothic air.
 
It could appeal to those who like Madeline but want to avoid Maddie, or by those who enjoy Maude but prefer something more elaborate. It could also be linked to Magdalen College, part of Oxford University, pronounce MAUD-lin.
