Madison, goes by Mad? I love this game.
Mal: Does.. um.. does this seem kind of tight? Kaylee: Shows off your backside.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Because books.
OH MY GOD, I think that might be it. For real. That suits her to a fucking tee.
JESSE FOR THE WIN! (I think. Pretty sure. Like, 98% sure!)

Is Donna too old fashioned? Like she was named for a relative?

Because books.
The sound of Donna isn't strong enough for what I want. (The actual sound, not the connotation -- the short vowel, the n sound, the second short vowel.)
I've pretty much decided to go with Jesse's suggestion

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Madison/Mad does have a strong sound. Is her middle name "Dolly"?, in case you want to have a moment of cute.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Today would have been my grandmother's 24th birthday.
We had a routine. In common years, I'd call to wish her “Happy Birthday!” on February 28th, and she would reply, “Oh, no, it's not my birthday yet.” When I wished her “Happy Birthday!” on March 1st, she would say, “Thanks, but you missed it.” Only on leap years would there be an actual celebration with cake and candles. She liked it that way.
So here's to you, grandma Hilda. I'm sorry you're not around to enjoy birthdays and un-birthdays anymore, but I'll celebrate them for you nonetheless.

Wren came out of nowhere, and it worked!
Wren has been my D&D character's name for ever, so I was amused.

That's pretty cool!
Hey, Gud, and anyone ready to query agents, did you know about Query Tracker? It's free and looks pretty comprehensive.

I'm using it right now (well, not right now, right now) and it's very useful.
