â Madison (girl) Madison [madi-son] as a girls' name (also used less regularly as boys' name Madison) is pronounced MAD-a-son. It is of Old English origin, and the meaning of Madison is son of the mighty warrior. Also possibly variant of Madeline (Hebrew) woman from Magdala, or surname derived from Matthew (Hebrew) gift of the Lord or Matilda (Old German) mighty in battle. The mermaid heroine Madison in the hit film Splash probably influenced the use of the surname and boy's name as a girl's name.
Etymology-Origin of County Name. There are two accounts regarding the county's name. One is that it was named in honor of President James Madison. The second and most widely accepted is that it was named after the Wisconsin county from which the German settlers came.
