Madissan is in Origin.
Madissan is a modern, creative respelling of the English surname-derived given name Madison. The surname likely meant "son of Maud," with Maud a medieval form of Matilda from Germanic maht "might" and hild "battle"; some sources also link it to "son of Matthew" (from Hebrew "gift of God"). As a variant, Madissan keeps the same pronunciation (MAD-ih-sen) and meaning.
Used as a surname in England since the Middle Ages, Madison transitioned to a given name in the United States, gaining enormous popularity for girls after the 1984 film Splash and trending through the 1990s-2000s, though it remains unisex. Madissan appears in late-20th/early-21st-century records as a distinctive spelling. Close variants include Madison, Maddison, Madisyn, Madyson, Madissen, Madisen, and Madisson; diminutives include Madi and Maddie.
