What about Mackenzie Madison for a girl? People told me it's a last name or boys name.?

I'm not pregnant, in high school, but we discussed baby names today and everyone told me that Mackenzie is a boy's name. I love it, it has always been my favorite girl name. It was supposed to be my name but I got Nicole instead.

Answer:
It's origin is of a Scottish clan (last name). I named my daughter Mackenzie, but I have also known people to name their boys Mackenzie as well. As long as you like it, it should not matter.
It is so not a boys name, i think it's very cute and i actually like it better for a girl
Up until about three years ago, I had always thought of it as a girls name, as I went to high school with a girl named Mackenzie. My parents neighbor went and named her son Mackenzie (they call him Mac now) but I still think of it as a girls name. So it can be used either way.

P.S. I personally like Mackenzie Madison
i LOVE THE NAME SO MUCH I WANT TO NAME ON OF MY GIRLS THAT!
Mackenzie is for both girls and boys. There is an actress named Mckenzie Westmore. She is on Passions. Also on the Young and the Restless, there was a character named Mackenzie that is a girl.
Yes Mackenzie was origionally a boys name i guess, but now days you only see girls with that name. Thats what i was gonna name my baby if i had a girl, but it's a boy. It's way cuter for a girl!
Both names originated as last names. They then were used as boy names. Within the last decade, some mom's thought it would be cute to give these boy names to girls. Now they are recognized in the US as girls names (the rest of the world still see's them as last names).

They are boring and overused and have ridiculous meanings for girls. Son of Maude, how cute for a little girl! lol, I think you're lucky to have gotten a real girl name rather than some trendy Mackenzie.
A few years ago, it became popular to name girls gender neutral names - espcially former last names. For example: Reagan, Madison, Morgan, Taylor, etc. These are now considered girl names.
i think mackenzie (or however you would spell it) is a fine name for a girl. as a matter of fact one of my close friends has a little girl named mackenzie. i think you will always get critisism from everyone when you do decide to have a baby and need to pick a name, might as well get used to it now. anyhoo mackenzie madison is a beautiful name for a little girl!!
I have never known a boy named Mackenzie. I know there are some with that as a last name. It's an Irish last name. I do know 4 girls named that and one is my little sister-in-law. Good Luck!
I love the name Mackenzie for a girl
That is my little cousin's name and we call her "Macky"
she is adorable
There used to be an actress in the 70's named Mackenzie. It could go either way with this name I think. I think it's unusual and very nice sounding. Sounds like a good strong name. I think a girl would do well with that name.

My son's name is Tyler which is really a last name, he was named after Steven Tyler. So you see any name can be used as a first or middle name!
I dont know who exactly is telling you that Mackenzie is a boys name but they are wrong because it is definetly a girls name ..how many boy's names are Mackenzie to my know ing i have never heard of a boy with the name Mackenzie and it is a very pretty girl name
Oh, it could go either way. It's cute, except that there are hundreds of Mackenzie's out there right now, and Madison is way overused as a girls name, we know at least ten Madison's.
Mackenzie is a cute name for a girl. Did you know that J.K. Rowling (author of Harry Potter, if you didn't know) named her most recent baby girl Mackenzie? :)
i have a niece who is named mickinzi it is beautiful
Mackenzie & Madison are both good names for a girl. So is Nicole!
Mackenzie Madison sounds like a nice name for a girl. I have always thought of Mackenzie as a girls name.
Mackenzie Philips (daughter of Michelle and John Philips of the Mamas & Papas) was not a boy. I like Madison Mackenzie.
i personally have never liked the double letter starters for the middle names.perhaps mackenzie addison. but ive never heard of a boy named mackenzie. only girls.
Eek!
Can you say 'trend follower'?!!?

I hate Mackenzie, Madison, Cassidy, Taylor, Tanner...any popular new names...
I LOVE THAT NAME
its to long
Noo Its a total girl name!
i suppose it could be but i love diverse names <8)
The name could go either way, a boy's or a girl's name, but i would rather name a girl Mackenzie than a boy, and i absolutely love the name Madison
