Maddee is in Origin.
Maddee is a modern English given name, a creative double-e respelling of Maddie. As a short form, it most often refers to Madison and to Madeleine/Madeline. The surge of Madison in the U.S., sparked by the 1984 film Splash, helped propel Maddie-type nicknames into mainstream use, and Maddee has appeared as an independent name on birth records since the early 2000s. Usage is strongest in the United States and Australia, with occasional appearances in the UK.
Meanings trace to its roots: from Madison, "son of Maud" (or sometimes "son of Matthew"), and from Madeleine/Magdalene, "woman from Magdala," a place-name interpreted as "tower." Common variants include Maddie, Maddy, Maddi, Madi, Madie, and Mady; longer related forms are Madison, Madeleine, Madeline, and Magdalene. The double-e ending gives a light, contemporary feel while preserving the familiar sound.
