Hmmm...well, if you're twenty-five, then you must have been born in either 1986 or 1987. I looked it up and Madison was number 366 in 1986 and 326 in 1987. So your mom used the name when it was just starting to get popular. It entered the top ten in 1993, when I was thirty-three. I personally was through having children at that age, but, of course, a lot of people are just having their first child at that age or even somewhat later, so I guess it's true that it did and does have some appeal for people my age. I was thinking of the time when I was in my teens and early to mid-twenties, when Madison was nowhere to be seen, which prompted me to make my "younger generation" comment.
