The story in the numbers
3,157 girls have been named Madelin in the United States since 1899, according to Social Security records. The busiest single year was 2000, with 115 births.
This is a comeback. After an early peak the name fell to a fraction of its former share, and it has been climbing again for the past decade.
Half of everyone given the name was born by 2002, and the 2000s alone account for 32%.

Other spellings in the data
What this page does not tell you. The Social Security data records how many babies were given a name, not what the name means or where it comes from — so neither do we. Counts cover people with a Social Security number; names given to fewer than five babies in a year are withheld. More on the data.
